Methods of microwave diagnostics of a phased array allow reconstructing the amplitude-phase distribution in the antenna and implement on this basis methods for adapting the lattice control to those found in the amplitude-phase distribution to defects. The methods of microwave diagnostics from the near zone described in the well-known literature are realizable only in anechoic chambers or on specially equipped training grounds. To solve the problems of adapting a phased antenna array to a technical state and increasing its operating time under extreme conditions, it is necessary to have methods of integrated microwave diagnostics of a phased antenna array at its location. The aim of the article is to develop a method for microwave diagnostics of a phased array antenna, implemented from the near zone of the antenna at its location, and eliminating the influence of echo signals (ES) on the diagnostic results. The article proposes a method for microwave diagnostics of a phased array antenna from the near field, which allows to exclude the influence on the accuracy of diagnostics of the echo signal present at the measuring site and errors in the positioning of the measuring probe. The proposed method will make it possible to implement microwave diagnostics of the antenna from the near field at its location. The results of microwave diagnostics are supposed to be used to implement various methods of adapting a phased array to a technical condition, significantly increasing its life
