    Abstract: A method and system for estimating a path-length difference between two paths followed by a target signal transmitted by a spacecraft or aircraft to a first receiving antenna and a second receiving antenna of a receiving base, respectively. A useful-phase difference is measured between signals that correspond to the target signal received by the first receiving antenna and second receiving antenna. The path-length difference is estimated in accordance with the useful-phase difference measurements. The measurement of the useful-phase difference comprises either correlating the signals received by the first receiving antenna and second receiving antenna, respectively, with a reference target signal, or analyzing the signals received by the first receiving antenna and second receiving antenna, respectively, using an FFT or a PLL.

    Abstract: A method and system for estimating a path difference between two paths followed by a target signal transmitted by a spacecraft or aircraft to a first receiving antenna and a second receiving antenna of a receiving base, respectively. A useful-phase difference is measured between signals corresponding to the target signal received on the first receiving antenna and second receiving antenna. The path difference is estimated on the basis of the measurements of the useful-phase difference. A calibration signal is transmitted to the receiving base and a calibration phase difference between signals corresponding to the calibration signal received on the first receiving antenna and second receiving antenna is measured. Variations are compensated in the measurements of the calibration-phase difference relative to the measurements of the useful-phase difference.
