Electromagnetic system for determining the mutual angular position of two objects in space

A magnetometric method is proposed for determining the mutual angular posit ion of two objects in space. A system of nonlinear equations that must be s olved numerically is introduced. Results are presented from a computer anal ysis of solutions that air obtained for the system. arid a structural diagr am of an instrument that was developed is presented together with experimen tal data from the measurement of angles. It is shown that the proposed syst em makes it possible to deter-mine the mutual angular position of two objec ts with a random error of 0.03 degrees.
