METHODS AND APPARATUS TO ADJUST TIME DIFFERENCE OF ARRIVAL DISTANCE VALUES USED FOR SOURCE LOCALIZATION

摘要

Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture to determine a location of an audio source are disclosed. Disclosed example apparatus are to determine respective error values for corresponding ones of a first dataset of time difference of arrival (TDOA) distance values between pairs of acoustic sensors, the error values based on a cost function, a first set of constraints and a second set of constraints. Disclosed example apparatus are also to adjust the corresponding ones of the first dataset of TDOA distance values based on the respective error values to determine a second dataset of TDOA distance values. Disclosed example apparatus are further to output the second dataset of TDOA distance values to source location circuitry that is to determine the location of the audio source.
