Overview
Describing the mathematical development underlying current and classical methods of geolocating electronic systems that are emitting, this newly revised and greatly expanded edition of a classic Artech House book offers practical guidance in electronic warfare target location techniques. This second edition features a wealth of additional material, including new chapters on time delay estimation, direction finding techniques, and the MUSIC algorithm. This practical resource provides critical design information on geolocation algorithms and establishes the fundamentals of existing algorithms as a launch point for further algorithm development.
Engineers gain an in-depth understanding of key target location methods that can be effectively applied to their work in the field. Readers discover triangulation algorithms that offer a highly efficient way to geolocate targets when the real estate on the sensor systems is adequate to support an antenna array. The book also presents quadratic geolocation techniques that can be implemented with extremely modest antennas - frequently a single dipole or monopole. Moreover, this authoritative volume details methods for geolocating the source of ionospherically refracted high frequency signals with a single sensor site.
