  • Abstract
    In this work we propose a method to estimate the position of multiple sources in a wireless acoustic sensor network, where each sensor node only transmits direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimates each time interval, minimizing the transmissions to the processing node. Our method is based on the intersection of DOA estimates with outlier removal, and as such is very computationally efficient. We explore the performance of our method through extensive simulations and real measurements.
