Non-line-of-sight (NLOS) identification and mitigation are carried out in a wireless positioning system based on channel statistics derived from multipath components of a received signal. The statistics may be based on the kurtosis, the mean excess delay spread, or the root mean square delay spread. The results are justified using IEEE 802.15.4a ultrawideband channel models. Amplitude and delay statistics based on the IEEE models are shown to be log-normal random variables. A joint likelihood ratio test is presented for the LOS and NLOS identification.
