Abstract :
The paper deals with a received Wi-Fi (802.11 spec, b) signal, consisting of a dominant direct-path component and of a sum of multiple reflected signals. In this paper the system based on decomposition of RF data signals to a linear combination of delayed replicas is suggested. The dominant components TDOA´s could then be evaluated with a higher accuracy. It is shown, that this method may significantly enhance position estimation accuracy in indoor TDOA systems.
