Abstract :
This paper describes an UWB location system that employs relative location principles to provide enhanced location performance in wireless networks. The system takes advantage of peer-to-peer range measurements between the devices and their neighbors. The collective range information is used to jointly estimate the location of the devices in the network providing enhanced performance.
