Laser based method and system for measuring separation distance between platforms

A method for determining a pre-selected point-to-point separation between a first craft C1 and a second craft C2 is provided. The method includes the step of providing two laser devices, L1, and L2, onboard each craft, C1 and C2, respectively. Then determining a desired skin location vector S2 of cr...

description A method for determining a pre-selected point-to-point separation between a first craft C1 and a second craft C2 is provided. The method includes the step of providing two laser devices, L1, and L2, onboard each craft, C1 and C2, respectively. Then determining a desired skin location vector S2 of craft C2 in L2 coordinates and translating the skin location vector S2 to L1 coordinates; and then determining skin separation between crafts C1 and C2 in accordance with the translated skin location vector.
