Abstract

A multi-input one-step least-squares (OSLS) algorithm for passive source localization is proposed. It is shown that the OSLS algorithm is mathematically equivalent to the so-called spherical interpolation (SI) method but with less computational complexity. The OSLS/SI method uses spherical equations (instead of hyperbolic equations) and solves them in a least-squares sense. Based on the adaptive eigenvalue decomposition time delay estimation method previously proposed by the same authors and the OSLS source localization algorithm, a real-time passive source localization system for video camera steering is presented. The system demonstrates many desirable features such as accuracy, portability, and robustness.
