  • Abstract
    Consider the problem of estimating the position and the velocity of an emitter given time and frequency differences of arrival acquired by a passive sensor array. By jointly eliminating the non-linear nuisance parameters of the model using an appropriate orthogonal projection, we obtain a least squares estimator of the parameters of interest. The advantage of the proposed estimator is the reduction of the computational complexity by an order of the number of sensors in the array.
