Title: Using antennas separated in flight direction to avoid effect of emitter clock drift in geolocation

Patent ·
OSTI ID:1079240

The location of a land-based radio frequency (RF) emitter is determined from an airborne platform. RF signaling is received from the RF emitter via first and second antennas. In response to the received RF signaling, signal samples for both antennas are produced and processed to determine the location of the RF emitter.
