Power Allocation and Parameter Estimation for Multipath-based 5G Positioning

Abstract

We consider a single-anchor multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing system with imperfectly synchronized transmitter (Tx) and receiver (Rx) clocks, where the Rx estimates its position based on the received reference signals. The Tx, having (imperfect) prior knowledge about the Rx location and the surrounding geometry, transmits the reference signals based on a set of fixed beams. In this work, we develop strategies for the power allocation among the beams
