Raab, "Quasi-Static Magnetic-Field Technique for Determining Position and Orientation", IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, Vol. GE-19, No. 4, October 1981, pages 235-243. Section "Two-State_Excitation" has direct solution for cartesian-coordinates position first and then for orientation. The position solution can generate NANs.

* Eugene Paperno, Ichiro Sasada, and Eduard Leonovich, "A New Method for Magnetic Position and Orientation Tracking", IEEE Transactions on Magnetics, vol. 37, No.4, July 2001, has direct solution for spherical-coordinates position first and then for orientation. The position solution never generates NANs, but does clearly show the limitations of two-state: Positions on or close to the missing transmitter-coil axis, are inaccessible. Positions in the plane of the two present transmitter-coil axes, are very noisy.
