Abstract :
The main contribution of this work is a novel calibration method to determine the clock parameters of the UWB receivers as well as their 3D positions. It exclusively uses time-of-arrival measurements, thereby removing the need for the typically labor-intensive and time-consuming process of surveying the receiver positions. Experiments show that the method is capable of accurately calibrating a UWB setup within minutes.
