Abstract

A relationship between the sensor placement and the PDOP (Position Dilution of Precision) is derived in the TDOA-based localization system. And the geometric condition of the sensor placement is analyzed in order to get a minimum PDOP based on the derived relationship. Through computer simulations, effect of the sensor placement on the PDOP is observed.
