The Relative Countermeasure Utility of the "Balanced-Receiver" and "Labeling" Direction-Finding Systems
Abstract
A brief discussion of radio direction-finding techniques for countermeasure use is presented. The prevalent trend of current literature on cooperative-type direction-finding equipment in de-emphasizing possible countermeasure requirements is noted. The principles of a typical cooperative-type direction-finding (labeling) system are compared with those of a typical countermeasure direction-finding (balanced-receiver) system from a countermeasure viewpoint. Comment is made on specific disadvantages frequently assumed for the direction-finding equipment based on the principles of the balanced-receiver system.
