Abstract :
An interferometer, the n(¿3) elements of which consist of frequency-independent spiral antennas, is used to determine the frequency of transmitters over wide bandwidths instantaneously. The frequency of the transmitters is determined after their bearings have been measured by each antenna. This method is an important variant to other methods.
