Abstract
A navigation guidance receiving system for use with a Doppler navigation beacon of the type comprising a commutated linear array for producing a simulated Doppler effect. The receiving system includes a wideband Doppler beat waveform information filter and measurement circuits. Means are also provided to gate the filter output synchronously to allow dissipation of the filter transient response. The result is reduced filter frequency "pulling" and reduced measurement error due to the effect of multipath signals having beat frequencies in the filter rejection band.
