Wireless location system

摘要

The position of a Wireless Transceiver (WT) is estimated using the Time Of Arrival (TOA) at several Monitoring Sites (MS) of the signal transmitted by the WT. Several sites are used to solve for the coordinates of the WT using hyperbolic trilateration. A time reference is used to synchronize the Monitoring Sites (MS). Super-Resolution (SR) techniques are applied to increase the resolution of the TOA estimate obtained via correlation of the received signal at each MS. SR techniques can improve the TOA resolution substantially.
