Passive location and tracking using DOA and TOA measurements of single nonmaneuvering observer

Passive location and tracking (PLAT) of a moving emitter can be implemented by multi-sited observers or by single maneuvering observer using DOA (direction of arrival) measurements only. The principle and method of passive location and tracking of a moving emitter by a single non-maneuvering observer using DOA and TOA (time of arrival) measurements are presented and described. Computer simulation of PLAT of a moving emitter in two dimensional plane was implemented. It shows that convergent and accurate tracking data can be obtained.<<ETX>>
