AMBIGUITY RESOLUTION IN THE SPASUR RADIO INTERFEROMETER DIRECTION FINDING SYSTEM,

Abstract

A number of methods for ambiguity resolution for use in the Spasur radio interferometer direction-finding system were derived and were studied using both Monte Carlo and operational data. Implementations of the methods in both hardware and software were analyzed. The conclusion was drawn that the optimum resolution results can be obtained only by the joint optimization of the antenna configuration and the resolution process to form an optimum processing system.
