An Extended Range Sensor Package (ESP).

Abstract

Details efforts to develop a long-range attitude sensor capable of detecting azimuth, elevation, roll and bearing of a sensor with respect to a radiator at ranges up to 100 feet applicable to transferring coordinates to a remote station for alignment or docking. System employs a medium-frequency nutating magnetic field to sense attitude and bearing at extended ranges through any nonmagnetic nonconducting medium. (Author)
