Claim Text:
1. A system for determining a location of an emitter emitting a signal of interest, the system comprising: a vehicle, including a position determining device to generate a location datum for the vehicle at each of a plurality of measurement points, an antenna to detect the signal of interest, and a receiver in communication with the antenna to receive the signal of interest; a processor in communication with the position determining device and the receiver; and a program executing on the processor to determine the power level of the signal of interest at all of the plurality of measurement points and to determine a solution for a probable location of the emitter from the change in power level of the signal of interest between every pair of measurement points, and determine the probable location of the emitter according to a location point for the probable location of the emitter having a greatest number of solutions.
