Abstract
The hyperbolic position fixing of ships by the Decca navigation system utilizes groundwave propagation. But the hyperbolic pattern will be disturbed by an isolated island. The instantaneous phase velocity and the bearing error are calculated from the equiphase lines near the island. It is found numerically and experimentally that the hyperbolic pattern is bent towards the island that is situated on the baseline between the master station and the slave one.
