Trong bài báo này, giải pháp hiệu quả cải thiện độ chính xác của định vị trong nhà, dựa trên góc tới AOA( Angle Of Arrival) kết hợp với bộ lọc Kalman đã được đề xuất. Giải pháp này có thể cải thiện độ chính xác cho bài toán định vị nguồn phát trong môi trường trong nhà so với phương pháp AOA truyền thống. Hai kịch bản được tạo ra để kiểm tra hiệu suất của giải pháp đề xuất. Kịch bản thứ nhất môi trường truyền dẫn tồn tại đường LOS ( Line Of Sight) và NLOS, kịch bản thứ hai môi trường truyền dẫn chỉ tồn tại các đường NLOS(Non - Line Of Sight) do các đường LOS bị suy giảm. Kết quả mô phỏng cho thấy, giải pháp đề xuất đạt được độ chính xác cao hơn so với phương pháp AOA truyền thống. Đặc biệt, khi sai số định vị dưới 2m và môi trường chỉ có NLOS, thuật toán đề xuất đạt độ chính xác cao hơn 20% so với thuật toán AOA truyền thống.

When there is non-line-of-sight (NLOS) path between the mobile station (MS) and base stations (BSs), it is possible to integrate many kinds of measurements to achieve more accurate measurements of the MS location. This paper proposed hybrid methods that utilize time of arrival (TOA) at five BSs and angle of arrival (AOA) information at the serving BS to determine the MS location in NLOS environments. The methods mitigate the NLOS effect simply by the weighted sum of the intersections between five TOA circles and the AOA line without requiring priori knowledge of NLOS error statistics. Simulation results show that the proposed methods always give superior performance than Taylor series algorithm (TSA) and the hybrid lines of position algorithm (HLOP).

In this paper, a localization scenario that the home base station (BS) measures time of arrival (TOA) and angle of arrival (AOA) while the neighboring BSs only measure TOA is investigated. In order to reduce the effect of non-line of sight (NLOS) propagation, the probability weighting localization algorithm based on NLOS identification is proposed. The proposed algorithm divides these range and angle measurements into different combinations. For each combination, a statistic whose distribution is chi-square in LOS propagation is constructed, and the corresponding theoretic threshold is derived to identify each combination whether it is LOS or NLOS propagation. Further, if those combinations are decided as LOS propagation, the corresponding probabilities are derived to weigh the accepted combinations. Simulation results demonstrate that our proposed algorithm can provide better performance than conventional algorithms in different NLOS environments. In addition, computational complexity of our proposed algorithm is analyzed and compared.

In complex indoor propagation environment, the non-line-of-sight error caused by various obstacles brings great error to node positioning. Choosing the appropriate signal transmission methods is important to improve node indoor positioning accuracy. In this research, ultra-wideband technology, as baseband with high theoretical positioning accuracy and real-time performance, is implemented to transmit indoor signals. The proposed fusion algorithm with ultra-wideband baseband takes advantages from both time difference of arrival and angle of arrival algorithms, combined through the steepest descent algorithm. The non-line-of-sight signal estimation error is iteratively eliminated to achieve effective positioning accuracy. The experimental results indicate that the novel time difference of arrival/angle of arrival fusion algorithm with steepest descent algorithm can largely improve node positioning accuracy and stability.

This work proposes a novel approach for tracking a moving target in non-line-of-sight (NLOS) environments based on range estimates extracted from received signal strength (RSS) and time of arrival (TOA) measurements. By exploiting the known architecture of reference points to act as an improper antenna array and the range estimates, angle of arrival (AOA) of the signal emitted by the target is first estimated at each reference point. We then show how to take advantage of these angle estimates to convert the problem into a more convenient, polar space, where a linearization of the measurement models is easily achieved. The derived linear model serves as the main building block on top of which prior knowledge acquired during the movement of the target is incorporated by adapting a Kalman filter (KF). The performance of the proposed approach was assessed through computer simulations, which confirmed its effectiveness in combating the negative effect of NLOS bias and superiority in comparison with its naive counterpart, which does not take prior knowledge into consideration.

To enhance the effectiveness and accuracy of mobile station location estimation, author utilizes time of arrival measurements from three base stations and one angle of arrival information at the serving base station to locate mobile station in non-line-of-sight environments. This article makes use of linear lines of position, rather than circular lines of position, to give location estimation of the mobile station. It is much easier to solve two linear line equations rather than nonlinear circular ones. Artificial neural networks are widely used techniques in various areas due to overcoming the problem of exclusive and nonlinear relationships. The proposed algorithms employ the intersections of three linear lines of position and one angle of arrival line, based on Levenburg–Marquardt algorithm, to determine the mobile station location without requiring a priori information about the non-line-of-sight error. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithms can always provide much better location estimation than Taylor series algorithm, hybrid lines of position algorithm as well as the geometrical positioning methods for different levels of biased, unbiased, and distance-dependent non-line-of-sight errors.

The fourth-generation system for mobile cellular communications (4G) has achieved great developments. The main problem here is that, with the passage of time and technical development, the need for new applications and services has emerged, and thus we need a new system that supports these matters in addition to the problems and limitations. One of the main challenges that the 4G system suffers from is the ability to support a larger number of devices, low latency, working in real time, provide greater capacity, in addition to providing a high data rate (bit rate) – hence 4G stands unable to support many new applications. This is what made researchers aspire to overcome these problems or reduce their impact to the maximum extent and this is what we expect to achieve in the new generation (5G). In this research, a presentation was made of the 5G system regarding with one of its most important techniques (Massive MIMO technology), clarification of some concepts related to the study such as throughput and NLOS (Non-Line of Sight), as well as the channel model used. The results of the experiments were presented with the discussion.

Due to its low implementation cost, the combination of the Received Signal Strength (RSS) with the Angle of Arrival (AOA) measurements is one of the solutions for Radio Frequency (RF) source localization, especially in a Non-Line of Sight (NLOS) environment. It is critical to determine the search space for a person who is lost in rural areas where the mobile network is unavailable due to a lack of Base Tower Stations (BTS) in order to reduce search time. In this paper, we introduce a new beacon-based approach for RF source localization, where the RF signal is received in NLOS after 1-bounce reflection, by combining the information coming from both the RSS-AOA sensors and the beacons, which are used as helpers- that move along a determined path. The proposed approach relies on determining the reflector’s pose first, after which the RF source is localized. The work has been verified in simulation and the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) is used as a performance metric for RF source localization. Results show that our proposed approach has the lowest RMSE among localization methods mentioned in the literature under the same conditions. HIGHLIGHTS A new beacon-based approach for RF source localization in Non-Line Of Sight (NLOS) condition A reflector’s pose is determined based on the signal received from beacons The reflector’s pose is used to determine the location of the RF source One bounce reflection is considered since the chance of receiving RF signal with more reflections is very low GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT
