A human tracking system based on the integration of the measurements from an inertial motion capture system and a UWB (Ultra-Wide Band) location system has been developed. On the one hand, the rotational measurements from the inertial system are used to track precisely all limbs of the body of the human. On the other hand, the translational measurements from both systems are combined by three d...

This paper presents a developed compact lowpass filter which is devised by concatenating ‘T’ and inverted ‘T’ open stubs on a microstrip line. They are combined to enhance the bandwidth and also to improve the outband performance. Insertion loss of the developed filter is less than -0.15 dB and the return loss is -30 dB at 2.85 GHz. Stopband performance of the filter is less than -20 dB from 5....

Reconfigurable filter technology is in robustness development. Due on the tunable and reconfigurable capability will contribute a various advantages in wireless applications. This tuning selectivity consist a numerous method, for example using varactor, micromachines, and PINdiodes.This review paper discussed PIN diodes as a switching element. The design and development of different types of sw...

In this article, we investigate experimentally the suitability of several Bayesian filtering techniques for the problem of tracking a moving device by a set of wireless sensor nodes in indoor environments. In particular, we consider a setup where a robot was equipped with an ultra-wideband (UWB) node emitting ranging signals; this information was captured by a network of static UWB sensor nodes...

This paper presents a theoretical analysis of the structure of wide angle, ultra-wideband SAR images formed by a constant integration angle backprojection image former. It is shown that the effects of the image former can be modeled as a filtering operation on the original data. Furthermore, SAR images for different squint angles can be obtained from the original images by directional filtering...

In this paper we propose a method to achieve relative positioning and tracking of a target by a quadcopter using Ultra-wideband (UWB) ranging sensors, which are strategically installed to help retrieve both relative position and bearing between the quadcopter and target. To achieve robust localization for autonomous flight even with uncertainty in the speed of the target, two main features are ...
