Improved line-of-sight/non-line-of-sight classification methods for pulsed ultrawideband localisation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Classification of line-of-sight (LOS) or non-LOS (NLOS) propagation is critical for most pulsed ultrawideband localisation systems. In this letter, first, the authors propose a two-dimensional (2D) LOS/NLOS classification scheme that uses skewness of the channel impulse/pulse response, which has not been used by existing work. The log-likelihood ratio of the 2D LOS/NLOS classification is used to determine the weights for localisation. Then, the authors derive an iterative Gauss–Newton method to solve the location of the target, which provides a higher accuracy than the Gauss–Newton method used in existing work. Finally, they investigate improved localisation by incorporating the statistics of NLOS bias as a result of LOS/NLOS classification into the cost function, and derive the statistics of the corresponding errors of location estimates. The proposed 2D LOS/NLOS classification scheme is compared with an existing 3D scheme to demonstrate its effectiveness.

Determination of mobile localization with time of arrival (TOA) signal is a requirement in cellular mobile communication. In some of the previous methods, localization with non-line-of-sight (NLOS) paths can lead to large position error. Also for simplicity, in most simulations suppose non stationary actual environments as stationary. This paper proposes (residual test + recursive least square)...

The line of sight (LOS) rate is a parameter that is needed to calculate the acceleration applied to missiles by the proportional guidance laws in order to hit the target. This rate is usually measured using gimbaled seekers. However, if the type of missile seeker be strap down, the LOS rate must be calculated from deriving the missile's seeker output angles or estimation methodes. The derivatio...
