Abstract :
This paper deals with the simulation of an Ultra-wideband localization algorithm using a raytracer. A 2-dimensional filter is proposed and analyzed due to its capabilities to recover the Angle of Arrival in a Non-Line of Sight scenario. Moreover, it is shown that the filter enables to increase the Signal to Noise Ratio significantly.
