The Statistical Theory of Radio Direction Finding

Abstract

The statistical theory of radio direction finding as it applied to three-dimensional geometrics is presented in this report. This theory is an extension of the two-dimensional theory presented by R. G. Stansfield in 1947. The theory has application in situations where airborne targets are maneuvering in three dimensions at high speed, especially when the platforms with the direction finding equipment are also aircraft.
