Radionavigation

Radio navigation or radionavigation is the application of radio [1] frequencies to determine a position of an object on the Earth Like radiolocation [2], it is a type of radiodetermination [3].

The basic principles are measurements from/to electric beacons [4], especially

  • Angular directions [5], e.g. by bearing, radio phases or interferometry,
  • Distances [6], e.g. ranging [7] by measurement of time of flight [8] between one transmitter and multiple receivers or vice versa,
  • Distance differences by measurement of times of arrival [9] of signals from one transmitter to multiple receivers or vice versa
  • Partly also velocity [10], e.g. by means of radio Doppler shift [11].

Combinations of these measurement principles also are important -- e.g., many radars measure range and azimuth of a target.
