RSS-based near-collinear anchor aided positioning algorithm for Ill-conditioned scenario
نویسندگان
چکیده
The conventional Received Signal Strength (RSS) based positioning algorithms such as Least Square (LS) and Weighted LS (WLS) produce significant estimation errors when the anchor nodes positions approach a collinear scenario. In this paper, we propose the CAP (Collinear Anchor aided Positioning) algorithm to provide robust positioning performance under ill-conditioned matrix conditions, whilst contributing toward overall low computational complexity. The CAP algorithm outperforms traditional approaches such as the maximum likelihood algorithm, LS and WLS among others.

متن کاملIMU-Aided Dual-Frequency RFID Based Localization in LOS/NLOS Hybrid Environment
The mitigation of NLOS (non-line-of-sight) propagation conditions is one of main challenges in wireless signals based indoor localization. When RFID localization technology is applied in applications, RSS fluctuates frequently due to the shade and multipath effect of RF signal, which could result in localization inaccuracy. In particularly, when tags carriers are walking in LOS (line-of-sight) ...
