  • Radiation source identification system
    Patent number: 4613865
    Abstract: A system for determining the direction of propagation of and the radio frequency of a source of electromagnetic energy. A frequency scanning compressive receiver detects the frequency of a radiating source at a high scanning rate. Resolution is thus not as good as desired. In this arrangement, a resolution receiver is combined to obtain sources of radiated energy of different frequencies that the compressive receiver cannot distinguish.
