We derive a geometric constraint formulating the relationship among the measurement errors in such a scenario. Using this constraint, we formulate the localization task as a constrained optimization problem that can be performed on the measurements in order to provide the optimal values such that the solution is consistent with the underlying geometry.Keywords: Angle measurement; Constraint theory; Error analysis; Problem solving; Emitter localization scenarios; Optimization problems; Computational geometry200710.1109/IDC.2007.3745492015-12-08
