WUB-IP: A High-Precision UWB Positioning Scheme for Indoor Multi-user Applications
High-precision positioning scheme, an important part of the indoor navigation system, can be implemented using an ultra-wide band (UWB) based ranging system. Recently, solutions for precise positioning in dense multi-path and nonline-of-sight (NLOS) conditions have attracted a lot of attention in literature. On the other hand, it is expected that Waveform Division Multiple Access (WDMA) technol...
متن کاملUltra Wide Band (uwb) Based Precise Positioning System for Robotics
The advent of the Global Positioning System (GPS) provided reliable and accurate position information worldwide for outdoor environment. However, many applications are emerging where position information is required and the environment or complexity considerations prohibit the use of GPS. As a result, areas as diverse as robotics, sensor networks, and ubiquitous computing have seen an increase ...
متن کاملEarth-Observation Applications of Navigation Satellites
Introduction The development of Earth-observation techniques based on the use of navigation signals can be traced back to the use of GPS in geodetic applications to provide astonishing precision, such as the determination to within a few centimetres of the relative positions of points on the Earth’s surface separated by several thousand kilometres. This ultra-precise positioning of fixed GPS re...
متن کاملMetrology, Mirrors and Gratings – Advances and Challenges in Synchrotron Optics Journal of Physics: Conference Series - invited Paper Preprint version
Ultra-precise reflective and diffractive optical elements like blazed diffraction gratings or ultra-precise mirrors of flat, elliptic, parabolic, or other shapes have become key components in today’s synchrotron optics. These optical components feature nanometre accuracy on a macroscopic length scale. Beamlines with extreme lengths of 100m to 1km or more (as planned for the European XFEL) will ...
متن کاملInvestigation of MODIS mission capability in tropospheric delay estimation for precise point positioning
Tropospheric delay is always considered as one of the factors limiting the accuracy of GPS. In this paper, the three-dimensional ray tracing technique is proposed to calculate the tropospheric delay. The ability of the MODIS mission to calculate the tropospheric delay is also examined. For this purpose, an area in central Europe was selected and a MODIS acquisition on 2008/08/01 was studied. In...
