Abstract English Using multiple receivers (microphones or antennas) in<br> a rigid configuration, such as on a smartphone, it is<br> possible to measure time difference of arrival to the receivers.<br> This in turn can be used to determine the direction<br> to the transmissions, if there are at least three<br> receivers. When using two receivers it can be used<br> to determine the angle to the transmissions relative to<br> the line through the two receivers. In this paper we<br> study three minimal problems for pose using such data:<br> (i) determine position and orientation using five transmissions,<br> (ii) determine position and orientation using<br> four transmissions and known ’down’ direction and<br> (iii) determine position using three transmissions and<br> known orientation. Numerically stable solvers are implemented.<br> An experimental validation of the solvers<br> are performed on simulated data
