چکیده

An effective location algorithm, which considers nonline-of-sight (NLOS) propagation, is presented. By using a new variable to replace the square term, the problem becomes a mathematical programming problem, and then the NLOS propagation’s effect can be evaluated. Compared with other methods, the proposed algorithm has high accuracy.

مکان یابی وفقی موبایل به روش آزمون باقی‌مانده

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)...

ML & Bayesian TOA Location Estimators for NLOS Environments

A major concern of cellular and PCS-based wireless location systems is the effect of the harsh propagation environment, particularly non-line-of-sight (NLOS) propagation. In order to improve location accuracy under such conditions, this paper proposes a novel location technique that estimates the true, or line-of-sight (LOS), ranges based on NLOS range measurements. The algorithms, designed for...

Hybrid TOA/AOA Schemes for Mobile Location in Cellular Communication Systems

Wireless location is to determine the mobile station (MS) location in a wireless cellular communications system. When fewer base stations (BSs) may be available for location purposes or the measurements with large errors in non-line-of-sight (NLOS) environments, it is necessary to integrate all available heterogeneous measurements to achieve high location accuracy. This paper illustrates a hybr...
