A METHOD AND A SYSTEM FOR DETERMINING THE GEOMETRY AND/OR THE LOCALISATION OF AN OBJECT

摘要

A method for determining the geometry and/or the localisation of an object comprising the steps of: sending one or more signals by using one transmitter; receiving by one or more receivers the transmitted signals and the echoes of the transmitted signals as reflected by one or more reflective surfaces building by a computing module a first Euclidean Distance Matrix (EDM) comprising the mutual positions of the receivers; adding to the EDM matrix a new row and a new column, the new row and a new column comprising time of arrivals of said echoes and computing its rank or distance to an EDM matrix determining the geometry and/or the position of the object based on said rank or distance.
