چکیده

This paper evaluates the performance of a semidistributed multinode time-of-arrival (TOA) and direction-of-arrival (DOA) fusion localization technique in terms of localization circular error probability (CEP). The localization technique is applicable in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) when global positioning system (GPS) is not available (GPS denied environments). The localization CEP of the technique is derived theoretically and verified via simulations. In addition, we theoretically derive the localization CEP of GPS-aided TOA fusion and GPS-aided DOA fusion techniques, which are also applicable in MANETs. Finally, we compare these three localization techniques theoretically and via simulations. The comparison confirms that in moderate scale MANETs, the multinode TOA-DOA fusion localization technique achieves the best performance; while in large scale MANETs, GPS-aided TOA fusion leads to the best performance.

Fundamental Limits of TOA/DOA and Inertial Measurement Unit-Based Wireless Capsule Endoscopy Hybrid Localization

In this paper, performance analysis of hybrid localization based on radio-frequency (RF) and inertial measurement unit (IMU) measurements for a single wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) traveling the gastrointestinal tract is studied. Specifically, the multiple bodymounted sensors are considered which are located on the front and back of a patient’s medical jacket and form the uniform rectangular...

Self-Localization of Mobile Robot using High Accurate Two-Dimensional Geo-Location System

In this paper, we propose an efficient geo-location system for social safety robot using a single base station, where its location is obtained by direction of arrival (DOA) and time of arrival (TOA) of the radio signal. The proposed system requires two reference signals while the conventional systems generally deploy more than three reference signals. For estimating DOA and TOA information toge...

Bayesian CRLB for hybrid ToA and DoA based wireless localization with anchor uncertainty

In this paper, we derive the Bayesian Cramér-Rao lower bound for three dimensional hybrid localization using time-of-arrival (ToA) and direction-of-arrival (DoA) types of measurements. Unlike previous works, we include the practical constraint that the anchor position is not known exactly but rather up to some error. The resulting bound can be used for error analysis of such a localization syst...
