The rotor: A new method to derive rotation between two reference frames

Vityazev, V. V.

The paper presents a study of two techniques to derive the relative orientation of two reference frames: the Standard Method, based on the least squares procedure, and a new method - the ROTOR, based on the representation of systematic differences in terms of orthogonal functions. It is shown that the ROTOR is preferable over the Standard Method s…
