Wideband TDoA Positioning Exploiting RSS-Based Clustering.

The accuracy of radio-based positioning is heavily influenced by a dense multipath (DM) channel, leading to poor position accuracy. The DM affects both time of flight (ToF) measurements extracted from wideband (WB) signals-specifically, if the bandwidth is below 100 MHz-as well as received signal strength (RSS) measurements, due to the interference of multipath signal components onto the information-bearing line-of-sight (LoS) component. This work proposes an approach for combining these two different measurement technologies, leading to a robust position estimation in the presence of DM.
