Hello.
I’m wondering if it’s possible to calculate coordinates to a point in a 2D plane given the following:
I have three signal sensors lets call them a, b and c.
b is placed on the y axis 10 centimeter from the origin (x,y = 0,10), c on the x axis 10 centimeter from origin (x,y = 10,0) and a on the origin (x,y = 0,0).
The point I want to calculate gives out a signal and I only know the ratio of the signal strength between any of the three sensors ab, ac or bc from the point to the sensors.
Is it possible to calculate the coordinates to the point given these values or do I need more sensors.
note that I only need to calculate positions in positive xy values.
Please forgive me if I’m not using the correct terms as I don’t know much about math and need this to solve a real world problem.
Thanks
