Abstract:
A method for determining the location of a first source. A first member is provided. A first tip microphone is attached to a first end of the first member. A first static microphone is provided. An initial frequency is recorded at the static microphone. The first member is rotated at an angular velocity. A tangential distance is calculated from the first tip microphone to the source. A source angle is calculated from the first member to the source. A height of the source is calculated.
