A Mathematical Structure for Refinement of Sound Ranging Estimates.

Abstract

In this report, a mathematical framework is introduced in which the sound ranging problem is defined, together with requisite structure to permit solution of certain problems generally known under this heading. The information presented shows that under hypothesis the sound ranging problem admits to a unique solution, and may be found among the zeroes of a related family of nonlinear equations. A form of solution is offered based on the concept of the Moore-Penrose Pseudoinverse; and a description of preliminary results is offered. (Author)
