Abstract
Groupings of receivers for determining a target location by a multilateration system are selected to give the best geometric dilution of precision result by eliminating the receiver that makes the greatest contribution to such dilution. In this way the groups to be used may be selected as appropriate for the location of the target in real time, avoiding the requirement to have a database holding the groupings to be used.
