  • Abstract
    Even though there are four times as many total sensors, the two 32-channel array network had larger localization errors when compared to an eight two array network when variance was introduced into the position and orientation of the arrays. It was shown that the performance of either network was dependent on these variances, but the two 32-channel array network was much more sensitive to variance in position and orientation of its arrays for all source locations.
