Abstract
A Wireless Location System includes signal collection systems and location processors for processing digital data provided by the signal collection systems. To determine the geographic location of a mobile wireless transmitter, time difference of arrival, or TDOA, data is determined with respect to a plurality of first signal collection system/antenna-second signal collection system/antenna baselines. A method for selecting baselines for use in location processing comprises calculating a number of parameters for each of the plurality of baselines, and including in a final location solution only those baselines meeting or exceeding predefined threshold criteria for each of the parameters.
