Abstract :
The development of electronic surveillance systems that can accurately measure the direction of arrival of signals from ground radar stations has opened the possibility of using statistical techniques to determine navigation information for the measuring vehicle. The method of combining "bearing" observations from several radar sites for navigational purposes, referred to as "back triangulation", will be discussed and demonstrated by simulation.
