Abstract
Estimation of mobile terminal location is made difficult by nonsymmetric contamination of measured data caused by non line of sight (NLOS) propagation effects. Robust estimation functions are proposed to reduce the effects of NLOS propagation on the location error. Simulation results showing the improvement in location accuracy over current methods are presented
