چکیده

An Enhanced Two-Step Least Squared (LS) approach is proposed here for hybrid Time Difference of Arrival/Angle of Arrival (TDOA/ AOA) wireless location. Compared to the original two-step LS algorithm, the method here can provide better performance, almost the same as that of Taylor-Series estimator. Compared to the Taylor-Series solution, the method has many computational advantages, such as, light computational burden, no linearization, no initial point selection issue, and no convergence issue.

Hybrid TDOA/AOA mobile user location for wideband CDMA cellular systems

This paper proposes a mobile user location scheme for wideband code-division multiple-access (CDMA) wireless communication systems. To achieve high location accuracy and low cost of the mobile receiver, the location scheme combines the time difference of arrival (TDOA) measurements from the forward link pilot signals with the angle of arrival (AOA) measurement from the reverse link pilot signal...

Mobile Location Tracking Scheme for Wireless Sensor Networks with Deicient Number of Sensor Nodes

A wireless sensor network (WSN) consists of sensor nodes (SNs) with wireless communication capabilities for specific sensing tasks. Among different applications, wireless location technologies which are designated to estimate the position of SNs (Geziciet al., 2005) (Haraet al., 2005) (Patwari et al., 2005)have drawn a lot of attention over the past few decades. There are increasing demands for...

A Constrained Least Squares Approach to Mobile Positioning: Algorithms and Optimality

The problem of locating a mobile terminal has received significant attention in the field of wireless communications. Time-ofarrival (TOA), received signal strength (RSS), time-difference-of-arrival (TDOA), and angle-of-arrival (AOA) are commonly used measurements for estimating the position of the mobile station. In this paper, we present a constrained weighted least squares (CWLS) mobile posi...
