  • Abstract
    This study investigates the application of a batch oriented MAP estimation scheme to the problem of tracking a moving acoustic target from sensors of uncertain position. We propose a simple method for determining sensor movement from the data, and subsequently reducing tracking errors. Simulations are presented, and the results show that the enhancements to the proposed algorithm permit estimation of the sensor positions along with that of the target.
