Optimization of the cluster-variant method of constructing a multi-position direction finding system for conditions of a priori uncertainty

The possibility of constructing a multi-position direction finding system for the case of a priori uncertainty, based on the application of the principles of multiplication of single marks of the location of the emitting target (multistructure principle) and their subsequent partition into classes (clustering principle) is considered. The criteria and algorithms for detecting the resulting cluster and for constructing the optimal estimation of target location stable to anomalous measurement errors are presented, taking into account the time costs of their computer realization. Practical recommendations and results of comparative analysis of different algorithms are given.
