The Single-Position Method for Determining the Coordinates of a Radio-Frequency Source in the Near-Field Region

摘要

A brief comparative analysis of the existing single-position methods used for determining the coordinates of radiating objects in the near-field region is made. The description of a new method for determining the position of the radio-frequency source, based on Doppler modulation of a spherical wave front of the received signal in the Doppler receiving channel with a rotary antenna, is provided. Errors of measurement of the range and angular coordinates of the radio-frequency facility are evaluated. Recommendations for practical application of the method in linear and nonlinear radio-position finding and radio-range finding are formulated.
