A method and apparatus is utilized to determine the bearing and/or
location of sources, such as, alternating current (A.C.) generators and
loads, power lines, transformers and/or radio-frequency (RF)
transmitters, emitting electromagnetic-wave energy for which a
Poynting-Vector can be defined. When both a source and field sensors
(electric and magnetic) are static, a bearing to the electromagnetic
source can be obtained. If a single set of electric (E) and magnetic (B)
sensors are in motion, multiple measurements permit location of the
source. The method can be extended to networks of sensors allowing
determination of the location of both stationary and moving sources.
