Abstract
In this paper, we propose a modified two stage Taylor series (TS) method for position estimation in a 3-D environment when either the time-difference-of-arrival (TDOA) or the distance measurements are available. It is aimed to improve the convergence performance of the traditional Taylor series method. Simulation results demonstrate that the modified TS method can improve the position estimation convergence considerably.
