Abstract :
Active (vehicle-borne transmitter) Doppler acquisition (no assumptions about the vehicle path are required) systems are treated from a mathematical standpoint. It is shown that solutions exist only when the number of receivers exceeds three and that linear solutions for the ranges are possible for certain systems including that system which uses five readings at each of five stations.
