we believe that the game will have a coordinate system of some sort. it can not be GPS or any thing that uses GPS technology because they would need in excess of $100,000 worth of equipment for every field. it will be a coordinate system either with a gridded carpet or 2 to 3 lights with different colors for us to do triangulations.

I agree. The IR decoder and the coordinates are just to point us to the fact we will be doing some navigation. The actual coordinates mean little, maybe designed to make everyone nuts.
The IR decoder is set up for 1 in 4 decoding. This means will probably will have 4 targets/landmarks to deal with. The decoder also has a relatively wide beam window, I believe +/- 40 degrees (please correct me if I am wrong). 4 transmitters would cover all for sides of the arena or 360 degrees.
