Abstract

This article examines three variants of the solution of the problem of remotely determining the position of an object in the coordinate system of a mobile platform on the basis of projections of vectors of magnetic induction measured on the platform. The induction is created by transmitting antennas located on the object. There is no contact coupling between the platform and the object, and the solution eliminates the effect of the position error due to the nonorthogonality of the direction of the radiation and the direction of reception of the magnetic fields by the transmitting and receiving antennas.
