Source Localization by Conjugated Delays Method Main Description of a New Process of Passive Localization

The method of the combined delays is a passive tracking process. It is a triangulation method employed to locate the signal hearth, which can be, according to the application area, of acoustic or electromagnetic origin. This method is based on the process of the delays combination, (delays which result from the differences in distances between the source and the sensors of the reception station), which makes it possible to determine emission direction. By knowledge of angles measurements of the signal arrivals on the reception sensors of station, one completely determines the triangles, which establish the source position.
