ABSTRACT:
A system for providing signals which are indicative of a target's position along at least one dimension across an electromagnetic energy beam. The system comprises a transmitter for transmitting energy which is encoded such that the polarization state of the energy varies across the beam, and a receiver which responds to the polarization of the received energy to provide signals indicative of the relative position of the target within the beam.
