Determining Positional Information
First Claim
1. :
- Apparatus for determining positional information relating to an object, comprising;
a receiver comprising a plurality of receiving elements;
a detector for detecting signals received at the receiving elements and for generating output signals representative of the received signals; and
a processor operable to apply, for each receiving element, a process to the output signal generated from the signal received at that receiving element separately from any output signal generated from a signal received at any other receiving element, so as to obtain a respective value of a parameter representative of the signal received at that receiving element, the processor being further operable to compare the values of the parameter thus obtained so as to obtain positional information relating to the object.
