Information about Radiodetermination
As defined by FS-1037C, radiodetermination is the determination of the position, velocity and/or other characteristics of an object, or the obtaining of information relating to these parameters, by means of the propagation properties of radio waves.
There are two main fields to radiodetermination:
There are two main fields to radiodetermination:
- radiolocation, which is mainly passive
- radionavigation, which is mainly active

velocity is defined as the rate of change of position. It is a vector physical quantity, both speed and direction are required to define it. In the SI (metric) system, it is measured in meters per second (m/s). The scalar absolute value (magnitude) of velocity is speed.

Radio propagation is a term used to explain how radio waves behave when they are transmitted, or are propagated from one point on the Earth to another.
In free space, all electromagnetic waves (radio, light, X-rays, etc) obey the inverse-square law which states that the
