Multilateration – source localization from range difference measurements: Literature survey
share
This is a brief literature survey on multilateration, the localization methods enabled by the range difference (RD) estimates. While the document primarily considers those obtained from the Time Difference Of Arrival (TDOA) measurements, in the context of sound source localization, the interest for such a review goes beyond acoustics. The discussed methods could be straightforwardly applied to, e.g. mapping problems in sensor networks, geolocalization by positioning systems and/or base stations, or to target localization in distributed radar signal processing.
