  • Abstract
    In this paper we give an overview on autonomous navigation, object detection and imaging by UWB sensor networks. We describe coherent and non-coherent approaches of data fusion for imaging and object localization that rely on different levels of synchronous multistatic and asynchronous sensor cooperation. Detection and identification of time variant object features are discussed.
