The paper presents a 3-D location and tracking algorithm based on the emitter's distance difference between two measurements and azimuth message. The location principle and feasibility of the method are analysed in detail. Under the condition that an emitter moves linearly at a constant speed, if we can locate and track an emitter only by using azimuth and distance difference without any angle of elevation, the equipment in the receiver will be simplified and the independence of the receiver may be improved as well. Then the algorithm proposed in the paper is of great importance to the practicability of the single observer passive location and tracking system. Performance of this algorithm is evaluated with the help of computer simulation test for three typical target paths.<>
