  2. Circular error probable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_error_probable

    That is, if CEP is n metres, 50% of shots land within n metres of the mean impact, 43.7% between n and 2n, and 6.1% between 2n and 3n metres, and the proportion of shots that land farther than three times the CEP from the mean is only 0.2%. CEP is not a good measure of accuracy when this distribution behavior is not met.

  3. UTAMS Motor, Rocket, Explosive Detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTAMS_Motor,_Rocket...

    Each array detects an impulsive event such as motor/rocket launch and determines the line of bearing from the array to the launch site. The lines of bearing from each array are transmitted via radio link to a central point where the results are combined to establish the location of the firing point through triangulation.

  4. Direction finding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direction_finding

    The pseudo-doppler technique is a phase based DF method that produces a bearing estimate on the received signal by measuring the doppler shift induced on the signal by sampling around the elements of a circular array. The original method used a single antenna that physically moved in a circle but the modern approach uses a multi-antenna ...

  5. Radio fix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_fix

    The (true) bearing to the station from the craft, TB or QUJ, is composed of the true heading, TH, plus the relative bearing, RB, of the station. The bearing from the station (QTE) is found by adding 180° to the QUJ figure. The line of position is then the line of bearing QUJ (i.e. from the station to the receiver) passing through the station.

  6. Course deviation indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Course_deviation_indicator

    The course line is selected by turning an "omni bearing selector" or "OBS" knob usually located in the lower left of the indicator. It then shows the number of degrees deviation between the aircraft's current position and the "radial" line emanating from the signal source at the given bearing. This can be used to find and follow the desired radial.

  8. Bearing (navigation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bearing_(navigation)

    In nautical navigation the relative bearing of an object is the clockwise angle from the heading of the vessel to a straight line drawn from the observation station on the vessel to the object. The relative bearing is measured with a pelorus or other optical and electronic aids to navigation such as a periscope , sonar system , and radar systems .
