Abstract
Given a trajectory and unit pointing vectors determined based on a planar or other approximation of a shock wave, a method and apparatus are provided to calculate times the sensors should have detected, based on a conical geometry of the shock wave. A difference between the calculated times and the actual times measured by the sensors may be minimized. The minimization may be performed by perturbing the unit vectors. When the perturbation of the unit vectors results in an acceptable difference between the calculated times and the measured times, an accurate trajectory of the projectile can be generated from the perturbed unit pointing vectors.
