Abstract: A system and method for determining the orientation of a linear array of radio receivers in space is provided. The system includes a primary radio receiver and a plurality of secondary radio receivers arranged in a collinear configuration and irregularly spaced apart from one another. The primary radio receiver and plurality of auxiliary radio receivers capable of receiving radio signals from a plurality of transmitters located in known, surveyed locations in a coordinate system. With the location of the primary receiver determined, the direction in which the aligned radio devices is pointed relative to the transmitters is then determined by using the phase angle of arrival (AoA) data from each transmitter.
