  Abstract

TDOA(Time Difference Of Arrival)-based localization system such as the passive surveillance system performs the time synchronization between the receivers after separated installing multiple receivers to set the same clock for all receivers. And it estimates 2D(or 3D) location of the target by solving intersection of the multiple hyperbola(or hyperboloid) using TDOA. To perform time synchronization, one receiver must be set to the master, and it provide the reference data to compensate the clock of the rest of the slaves. The positioning accuracy of TDOA-based localization system is changed in accordance with the master that is selected among multiple receivers. So, the optimum receiver which is selected among multiple receivers must be set to master to get best performance in the considered deployment of receivers. In this paper, we propose a selection scheme of master receiver for time synchronization using DOP(Dilution Of Precision) which is based on location of the target and the multiple receivers. The proposed scheme has low complexity and short processing time, and it is easy to automate in the TDOA-based localization systems.
