Acoustic location and acoustic signal enhancement

摘要

A method of locating an acoustic source comprises sampling said acoustic source (210) at a plurality of acoustic receivers (205) having different locations (315), each acoustic receiver time-stamping a respective received acoustic sample using a system time (320,330), each acoustic receiver sending said time-stamped acoustic sample to a central controller (325), the central controller (525) determining the location (630) of the acoustic source in response to receiving the time-stamped sound source samples from the plurality of receivers.
