GENERAL DISCUSSION OF GEOMETRICAL FACTORS AFFECTING TRILATERATION SOLUTIONS FOR POSITION AND VELOCITY.
Abstract
The study presents an analysis of the influence of geometrical factors upon trilateration solutions. The results are in a form which find general application to many station configurations and target trajectories. A discussion of velocity variances is presented in sufficient detail to demonstrate the interdependence of station configuration and target dynamics. This discussion yields useful criteria for use in the design of a range and range-rate measuring system. The study also includes an analysis of single-station solutions for comparison purposes.
