A comprehensive investigation of the VLF long range navigation system

Approved for public release; distribution unlimited. / The highly stable propagation characteristics of VLF
transmissions make them an ideal source of world-wide
navigation data. The arrival phase of a VLF signal is
continuously compared with a local standard. The change in
the phase difference between the received signal and the
local standard is converted to relative motion with respect
to the VLF transmitter.
This investigation concerns itself with the development
as a whole of the VLF navigation system. Refinements are
made in the antenna system and the antenna signal processing
In addition, navigation procedures, tables, and forms are
presented for system use.
