Polarization Method of Determining the Bearing and the Roll Angle of a Mobile Object with Twochannel Radio Beacon Navigation Systems

Abstract

The polarization method of determining the bearing and the roll angle of a mobile object with two-channel radio beacon systems based on vector properties of radio beacon signals transmitted from two spatially separated points and amplitude-based and phase-based processing of the resultant vector signals received onboard the mobile object in the circular polarization basis is considered.
