Abstract
In this paper, we propose and analyze the two way ranging (TWR) positioning technique using ultra wideband (UWB) for indoor environment. We employed IEEE 802.15.3a channel as a simulation environment and used to time of arrival (TOA) algorithm. UWB technology in a low transmission power the less the effect of interfering with the existing system, the frequency can be shared so that it can improve the spectral efficiency. And, positioning technique based on UWB with a very narrow pulse width has high accuracy in indoor environment. From the simulation results, it is analyzed the probability of error and positioning performance for channel effects and confirmed usefulness of the proposed scheme.
