摘要: A maximum likelihood (ML) acoustic source location estimation method is presented. This uses signal energy measurements taken at individual sensors of an ad hoc wireless sensor network to estimate the locations multiple sources. Compared existing based localization methods, this proposed ML delivers more accurate results and offers enhanced capability localization. multi-resolution search algorithm expectationmaximization (EM) like iterative are expediate computation locations. The Cramer-Rao Bound (CRB) has been derived. When there only a single in field, corresponding CRB formulation can be used analyze impacts placement accuracy estimates. Extensive simulations have conducted. Empirically, it observed that consistently outperforms methods. An example applying track military vehicles using real world experiment data also demonstrates performance advantage over previously method.
