ABSTRACT:
A method of tracking a target includes: (a) receiving energy from the target at a plurality of spatial orientations; (b) processing the received energy; (c) evaluating a penalty function at each of the plurality of spatial orientations; (d) selecting a new spatial orientation based on the evaluation; and (e) orienting a receiver to receive energy from the target at the new spatial orientation.
