For this purpose, an underground personnel positioning platform was established on the wireless sensor network (WSN). Specifically, the ultra-wide band (UWB) and the time difference of arrival (TDOA) positioning algorithm were introduced briefly, in view of the underground operation environment. Then, the underground operator monitoring platform was developed based on UWB-WSN and compared it with different positioning techniques through experiments. The results show that the proposed platform achieved a high positioning accuracy and satisfied the needs of real-time monitoring of underground personnel. The research findings shed new light on the mitigation of personnel and property losses in coal mine accidents.</span>

Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) technology due to its high speed, data rate and multipath immune characteristics is one of the promising solutions for communication systems. There have been awesome studies efforts to apply extremely-huge bandwidth using Ultra Wide band (UWB) technology to the military and government sectors. In UWB technology challenging task is synchronization and fine timing performance for the specified application. This paper explores the different types of UWB receivers which are Transmitted Reference (TR) UWB Receivers and Frequency Shifted Reference (FSR) UWB Receiver focusing on the synchronization and timing performance of the specified application. In order to identify these issues, the existing researches carried out in the domain of synchronization and timing performance of UWB from existing literatures. Through the review of existing literatures certain research gap are identified which are all stated in the research gap.
