  • Abstract
    This paper presents an algorithm for estimating a location of the base station in GSM system. The algorithm uses received signal strength measurements to detect and emphasize less reflected signal rays originating from the base station. The position estimate is obtained by averaging the intersection points of such rays. The performances of the algorithm have been verified by an extensive measurement campaign and the achieved median error was less than 50m.
