Abstract
This paper presents a research activity aimed at developing an Ultra-Wideband sensor for personnel indoor localization, based on the round trip time measurement of Ultra-Wideband pulses. An approach combining flexibility, high measurement update rate and asynchronous operation with digital processing capability has been employed in the design of the sensor. The principle of operation of the proposed sensor, the architecture of the realized in-house test bed and the experimental setup are described and discussed.
