Cramér-Rao Bound for Hybrid GNSS-Terrestrial Cooperative Positioning
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this contribution we derive an expression of the Cramér-Rao bound for hybrid cooperative positioning, where GNSS information is combined with terrestrial range measurements through exchange of peer-to-peer messages. These results provide a theoretical characterization of achievable performance of hybrid positioning schemes, as well as allow to identify critical network configurations and devise optimized node placement strategies.

Cramér-Rao bound analysis of positioning approaches in GNSS receivers
Recently, Direct Position Estimation (DPE) has arisen as a potential approach to deal with the positioning problem in Global Navigation Satellite System receivers. The conventional navigation solution is obtained in two steps: synchronization parameters are estimated and then a trilateration procedure is in charge of computing user’s position, based on those parameters. In contrast, DPE estimat...
متن کاملA Simulation Tool for Real-Time Hybrid-Cooperative Positioning Algorithms
The authors propose a simulation tool (ST) able to test real-time hybrid GNSS/terrestrial and cooperative positioning algorithms that fuse both pseudorange measurements from satellites and terrestrial range measurements based on radio frequency communication performed between nodes of a wireless network. In particular, the ST simulates devices belonging to a peer-to-peer (P2P) wireless network ...
متن کاملCramér-Rao Lower Bounds for hybrid localization of mobile terminals
While the problem of locating a mobile station (MS) in outdoor scenarios is solved through the introduction of the Global Positioning System (GPS), in dense urban and indoor scenarios problems appear resulting from the attenuation or complete shadowing of the satellite signals, so that GPS often can not provide MS location estimates [1]. However, the existing cellular radio network (CRN)-based ...
متن کاملAngle-of-Arrival Assisted GNSS Collaborative Positioning
For outdoor and global navigation satellite system (GNSS) challenged scenarios, collaborative positioning algorithms are proposed to fuse information from GNSS satellites and terrestrial wireless systems. This paper derives the Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB) and algorithms for the angle-of-arrival (AOA)-assisted GNSS collaborative positioning. Based on the CRLB model and collaborative positionin...
متن کاملAutonomous Positioning Techniques Based on Cramér-Rao Lower Bound Analysis
We consider the problem of autonomously locating a number of asynchronous sensor nodes in a wireless network. A strong focus lies on reducing the processing resources needed to solve the relative positioning problem, an issue of great interest in resourceconstrained wireless sensor networks. In the first part of the paper, based on a well-known derivation of the Cramér-Rao lower bound for the a...
