METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR LOCATING SIGNAL EMITTERS USING CROSS-CORRELATION OF RECEIVED SIGNAL STRENGTHS

摘要

A method and system for determining a location of a first device that emits a signal: provide at least three sensors separated and spaced apart from each other; at each of the sensors, receive the signal emitted by the first device; determine the received signals for each of the sensors; determine cross-correlations of the received signals for pairs of the sensors; and determine the location of the first device from the magnitudes of the cross-correlations of the received signals.
