Abstract
A method for acoustic detection of shooter location includes the following steps: receiving acoustic signals by a microphone array; detecting muzzle blast (MB) and shock wave (SW) signals through matched filter and cross correlation processes; transforming the detected MB and SW signals from time domain into frequency domain; beamforming the signals by means of the Delay and Sum method in frequency domain; estimating the direction of arrival (DOA) for the MB and SW signals by finding the azimuth and elevation which give the maximum power of the beamforming response; performing range estimation using the difference between the arrival time of the MB and SW signals together with the DOA estimations.
