Abstract :
This contribution introduces position estimation methods relying on observations of the received power and mean delay obtained in a wideband multi-link scenario. In particular, one- and two-step methods are introduced based on statistical models of the observed link parameters. The proposed methods are tested on data from a wideband measurement campaign. The results show that including observations of mean delay of the wideband links can notably improve positioning accuracy as compared to relying on observations of received power alone.
