Abstract

An approach for fine determination of transmitting antenna positions in distributed antenna system used for UWB indoor self-localization is proposed. Proposed solution is based on the ranging of the transmitting antennas by the use of the high-resolution MUSIC based method developed by authors for UWB self-localization. Performances of the proposed solution are illustrated by experimental results based on real measurements by the use of UWB channel sounder.
