Abstract: The invention relates to a method for locating at least two sources emitting electromagnetic pulses in an environment comprising two reflectors.The method comprises receiving, by a detector, for each source to be located, at least one same emitted pulse, received directly from said source and received by reflection on one of the reflectors.The method further comprises: identification of the pulses received directly and the pulses received by reflection, grouping by pairs of pulses received directly with pulses received by reflection, calculating, for each pair, the difference between the date of arrival of the pulse received by reflection relative to the date of arrival of the pulse received directly, and determining the distance of each source from the detector from calculated differences in dates of arrival.
