GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION SERVICES BASED SOFTWARE AND IMAGING SYSTEM TO SUPPORT THE RADIO DIRECTION FINDING RESULTS
Abstract
Finding the position of signal sources has been effectively used by military systems including targeting, positioning, orbiting primarily, as well as in civil applications such as detecting mine sources, observing the natural environment. Direction finding that explored the importance during the World War II, has been widely used at the present time while there has been considerable improvement. While systems could detect only one source at early times, they can be capable of detecting two or more signals at the same time today, with the exploring of subspace techniques. The aim of this study, to support the hardware which planned to be produced on these purpose with an factual software and by the way, based on the prototype measurements before the mass production to take out criterion for the final products.In this study, we first give some information about direction finding systems then with these information, develop a study on evaluating a new space segment supported alternately methoded prototype hardware and software to cover the gap that direction finding systems have because of uncontrollable mistakes.
