Abstract :
In this paper we present experimental evaluations of cooperative ranging-based approaches in mobile positioning. Our main contribution is represented by experimental investigations, analysis of the errors introduced in the distance estimation and exploitation of the knowledge of environmental perturbations with a NLLS algorithm, highlighting the limits of such cooperative schemes, proving that the effect of cooperation might be very limited in real-life scenarios.
