METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETERMINING THE POSITION OF AN OBJECT

摘要

A method and system for determining the location of an object. The system may implement a number of sensors at different locations that are positioned to receive a transmitted or reflected signal from the object. Also disclosed is a system and method of calculating object position based upon the time difference of arrival (TDOA) from each sensor, or the relative time difference of arrival (RTDOA). A known distribution of noise is added to the time of arrival (TOA) prior to calculating the object position.
