1. A method of determining source location of energy carried in the form of propagating waves through a conducting medium comprising:

  • a) detecting the waveform energy simultaneously at a plurality of points on, near, or in the conducting medium;

    b) recording the detected energy;

    c) isolating one or more modes of propagation of the energy through the medium;

    d) deriving source location by using generalized cross correlation of selected isolated modes of propagation.
