Abstract
An illustrative example embodiment of a system includes a detector configured to detect a signal from a source and provide first signal information regarding a distance a detected signal traveled between the source and the detector. A processor is configured to determine whether the first signal information corresponds to a direct signal path between the detector and the source or the first signal information corresponds to a reflected signal based on second signal information from at least one other detector that does not have a direct signal path between the other detector and the source. The processor determines a location of the detector based on the first signal information only when the first signal information corresponds to the direct signal path between the detector and the source.
