METHOD FOR LOCATION OF RADIATION SOURCE AND DEVICE FOR ITS REALIZATION Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC G01S5/16 

FIELD: location of radiation sources.

SUBSTANCE: the method consists in determination of the angles-bearings of radiation sources, which is performed with the aid of two optic-location units, each having a scanning mirror, lens and a photodetector. The point located on the intersection of the scanning mirror and the lens optical axis is used as the reference point of angles-bearings. At determination of angles-bearings the shift of the angle-bearing reference point due to scanning is determined, and the change of the distance between the optic-location units is determined, which is used in determination of the co-ordinates of the radiation sources. Two optic-location units in the device for remote determination of the co-ordinates of the radiation sources are connected to the unit for determination of the angles-bearings of the radiation sources connected to the unit for determination the co-ordinates of the radiation source, and a unit for determination of the shift of the reference points of angles-bearings, unit for input and storage of the data of distance between the optic-location units and an adder are introduced. The output of the unit for determination of angles-bearings is connected to the input of the unit for determination of the shift of the reference points of angles-bearings, the outputs of the unit for determination of the shift of the reference points of angles-bearings and the unit for input and storage of the data of distance between the optic-location units are connected to the adder, whose output is connected to the unit for determination of the co-ordinates of the radiation sources.

EFFECT: enhanced accuracy of readout of the co-ordinates of radiation sources due to correction of the co-ordinates of the reference points of angles-bearings.
