Abstract
A transmitter unit is provided for transmitting a continuous waveform in a magnetic field, the continuous waveform being an unmodulated electromagnetic waveform. The transmitter unit typically comprises a transmitting solenoid for transmitting the continuous waveform, and an oscillator for generating the continuous waveform. A receiver unit is also provided, the receiver unit having receiving circuitry, such as a receiving solenoid, for receiving the continuous waveform. The receiver unit also provides an output for outputting an indication of proximity between the transmitter unit and the receiver unit, where a characteristic of the indication of proximity depends on the strength of the magnetic field generated by the transmitter unit at the location of the receiving solenoid. Also provided is a method for using a system having a transmitter unit and a receiver unit.
