In a voice localization system, the nonlinear equation of voice sources coordinates were established according the accepted information, so the algorithm for solving nonlinear equations is the key problem to the voice source localization syetem. In this paper, the Newton - Raphson method (N-R) is applied to solve the nonlinear equations, by setting the initial solution of equations,then calculating the unbalance vector and Jacobian matrix (J) so as to attain corrected vetor, after modification and iteration the initial solution,until meet the precision numerical solution. Test results show that, application of N-R method in voice localization system have advantange of less number of iterations, saving chip resources and high precision, can meet the precision requirements of voice localization system.
