2008 IEEE 16th Signal Processing, Communication and Applications Conference, SIU, Aydın, Türkiye, 20 - 22 Nisan 2008, (Tam Metin Bildiri)
Two well developed techniques in emitter location estimation using time difference of arrival (TDOA) are analyzed and compared for different situations and noise values. These techniques are a passive localization algorithm and a closed-form solution based on association by clustering. The advantages and disadvantages of these techniques are determined and supported by the simulation examples. Also, a hybrid model, using these two methods and including an iterative process based on maximum likelihood (ML) is presented and analyzed in performance. ©2008 IEEE.
