Abstract:

A linear correct total least squares method by semidefinite programming global algorithm (LCTLSSDP) is proposed for robust 3D acoustic source localization model considered time difference of arrival. The new algorithm finds the optimal solution of this ratio of quadratic functions model with a equality constraint by solving a nonconvex homogenous quadratic optimization problem with inequality constraints. The dual theory is also used when designing.
