Robust structured total least squares algorithm for passive location

A new approach called the robust structured total least squares (RSTLS) algorithm is described for solving location inac- curacy caused by outliers in the single-observer passive location. It is built within the weighted structured total least squares (WSTLS) framework and improved based on the robu...

Summary:A new approach called the robust structured total least squares (RSTLS) algorithm is described for solving location inac- curacy caused by outliers in the single-observer passive location. It is built within the weighted structured total least squares (WSTLS) framework and improved based on the robust estimation theory. Moreover, the improved Danish weight function is proposed ac- cording to the robust extremal function of the WSTLS, so that the new algorithm can detect outliers based on residuals and reduce the weights of outliers automatically. Finally, the inverse iteration method is discussed to deal with the RSTLS problem. Simulations show that when outliers appear, the result of the proposed algo- rithm is still accurate and robust, whereas that of the conventional algorithms is distorted seriously.
