Abstract :
This research proposes a modification to the multiple sample correlation algorithm (MSCA) where some statistical concepts are aggregated to the original method. With our modifications we were able to improve the emitter position fix estimate more than 240% compared to the original MSCA and more than 1,200% compared to the extended Kalman filter methodology.
