Abstract
A system suitable for determining a location of an emitter emitting a radiation signal from an unknown location has a vehicle with a location position determining apparatus to receive a location datum, so the location of the vehicle can be determined when the radiation signal is received. A sensor connected to a receiver is positioned on the vehicle to detect and receive the radiation signal at a plurality of locations. A processor having a program executing therein determines the power level of the radiation signal at each measurement location and determines the location of the emitter from the change in power level of the radiation signal between measurement locations.
