We can see based on this structure that we need at least three hydrophones measurements ($d_1$, $d_2$, and $d_3$) to solve for the three unknown elements of unit vector $\hat{P}$. Furthermore, the three position vectors of the hydrophones ($\vec{H_1}$, $\vec{H_2}$, and $\vec{H_3}$) must constitute an invertible, full-rank matrix. In this case that simply means the three hydrophones cannot all lie on the same plane. | We can see based on this structure that we need at least three hydrophones measurements ($d_1$, $d_2$, and $d_3$) to solve for the three unknown elements of unit vector $\hat{P}$.
