Our system is not being used for satellites and I assume that stars have better known (and stable) locations, making calculations easier to get accurate. We intend using our beamformer in conjunction with a correlator. This will allow us to monitor the path length differences using the correlator, and use this in the calculations for the beamformer if needed. A coarse correlator might help if needed, maybe just by capturing snapshots of the cross product and analysing the result in software. Regards Andrew
