Abstract
Detection of a trajectory of a supersonic projectile is carried out derived from a plurality of acoustic detection signals. From these acoustic detection signals, two or more shockwave-derived trajectory estimates can be derived. Further, a wake derived trajectory bearing estimate can be derived, from which disambiguation of the shockwave-derived trajectory estimates can be effected.
