Abstract
A method for localizing one or more sources, the source or sources being in motion relative to a network of sensors, comprises a step for the separation of the sources in order to identify the direction vectors associated with the response of the sensors to a source at a given incidence. The method comprises the following steps of associating the direction vectors a1p(1)m . . . aKp(K)m obtained for the mth transmitter and, respectively, for the instants t1 . . . tK and for the wavelengths λp(1) . . . , λp(k), and localizing the mth transmitter from the components of the vectors a1p(1)m . . . aKp(K)m measured with different wavelengths.
