Monostatic Location of the Radiating Slot under a priori Uncertainty Conditions on the Basis of Angle and Energy Measurements

Abstract

The modification of the known angle and energy method of passive location, which makes it possible to determine the position of a radiating source moving through a space from the angles and energies measured by a fixed monostatic system, is developed. It is demonstrated that the given modification does not require to a priori know the main parameters of the radio-link equation characterizing the source‒system radio contact conditions. The conditions of application and accuracy characteristics of the developed modification are analyzed. Practical recommendations of its usage are presented.
