Analysis of Bearing Errors from Acoustic Arrays

Abstract

This report presents a limited analysis of bearing estimates based on acoustic sensors. Significant biases are found in the bearing estimates of all the acoustic sensor arrays involved in the experiment. The explanation of the biases in terms of other factors, such as wind, range and SNR, was beyond the scope of this study. However, the biases do explain much of the track bias observed in recent tracker evaluations.
