Evaluation of Time Difference of Arrival (TDOA) Networks Performance for Launcher Vehicles and Spacecraft Tracking [PDF]
Time Difference of Arrival (TDOA) networks could support spacecraft orbit determination or near-space (launcher and suborbital) vehicle tracking for an increased number of satellite launches and space missions in the near future. The evaluation of the geometry of TDOA networks could involve the dilution of precision (DOP), but this parameter is related

Anchor Pair Selection for Error Correction in Time Difference of Arrival (TDoA) Ultra Wideband (UWB) Positioning Systems [PDF]
Ultra wideband positioning systems typically use techniques such as two way ranging (TWR) or time difference of arrival (TDoA) to calculate the position of mobile tags. TDoA techniques require the transmission of only a single packet by the mobile tag, thus providing better scalability, higher update rates and less energy consumption than TWR ...

Localization of Underwater Noise Sources Using TDOA (Time Difference of Arrival) Method [PDF]
As considerable interests in noise emission from a ship have been increased, the need for localization of noise sources of the marine propeller generating cavitation and singing noise is looming large. In many practical cases, cavitation and singing noise occur on a particular position of the certain blade of the propeller.

Optimal Sensor Formation for 3D Cooperative Localization of AUVs Using Time Difference of Arrival (TDOA) Method [PDF]
The cooperative localization of submerged autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) using the Time Difference of Arrival (TDOA) measurements of surface AUV sensors is an effective method for many applications of AUVs. Proper positioning of the sensors to maximize the observability of the AUVs is very critical for cooperative localization.

Robust Time-Difference-of-Arrival (TDOA) Localization Using Weighted Least Squares with Cone Tangent Plane Constraint [PDF]
Finding the position of a radiative source based on time-difference-of-arrival (TDOA) measurements from spatially separated receivers has been widely applied in sonar, radar, mobile communications and sensor networks. For the nonlinear model in the process of positioning, Taylor series and other novel methods are proposed.
