Localization is an important and extensively studied problem in wireless ad hoc networks. The process of position discovery can be realized utilizing range measurements including received signal strength, time of arrival or angle of arrival. We focus on localization method based on angle of arrival information between neighbor nodes. This paper proposes an original positioning algorithm to improve positioning accuracy of angle of arrival (AoA) methods. It is called Complex Angle of Arrival (CAoA). Simulations show that CAoA achieves better positioning results compared to conventional AoA method.

Abstract:In this paper, we deal with the improvement of the positioning accuracy of distance vector (DV)-based positioning algorithms, which use angular information DV-angle of arrival (AoA). This algorithm belongs to an adhoc positioning system. We focus on the improvement of the algorithm and its enhanced version is presented. The angular information of particular nodes is obtained and processed by the original algorithm; however, the final position estimation is determined by the proposed novel algorithm using only a subset of all intersections. We assign weights to the individual intersections according to their positions and the positions of the RNs. For the final position estimation, only intersections with the highest weights are used. The performance of the proposed enhanced algorithm is verified by simulations and it is compared with the original DV-AoA algorithm.

In this paper the method for radio channel pulse response processing and modulation adaptation principle is described. The received signal is converted by baseband conversion, digitized and the pulse response of radio channel is processing by proposed algorithms. These algorithms are working in real time and are able to estimate the amplitude, phase and delay of the received signal in each of propagation paths. The most promising algorithm (Exponential Power Descend Algorithm) achieved recovery successfulness of all signal paths equal approximately 90 % for SNR = 2.5 dB. The advisable modulation is calculated from pulse response of radio channel and is immediately used in actual radio channel.
