In this paper, we proposed a high precision location estimation algorithm using an enhanced decision scheme for RTLS and analyzed its performance in point of an average estimation error distance at 2D coordinates searching area, $300m\times300m$ and LOS propagation environments. Also the performance was compared with that of conventional TDOA algorithm according to the number of available reader and received sub-blink. From the results, we confirmed that the proposed location estimation algorithm using an enhanced decision scheme was able to improve an estimation accuracy even in boundary region of searching area. Moreover, effectively reduced an error distance in entire searching area so that increased the stability of location estimation in RTLS. Therefore, we verified that the proposed algorithm provided a more higher estimation accuracy and stability than conventional TDOA.

In this paper, we proposed a novel location estimation algorithm based on the concept of space-time signature matching in a moving target environment. In contrast to previous fingerprint-based approaches that rely on received signal strength (RSS) information only, the proposed algorithm uses angle, delay, and RSS information from the received signal to form a signature, which in turn is utilized for location estimation. We evaluated the performance of the proposed algorithm in terms of the average probability of error and the average error distance as a function of target movement. Simulation results confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm for location estimation even in moving target environment.

Commercialized location estimation System with high accuracy is widely used for various services. However, if the systems aren't completely installed in an indoor, location estimation accuracy tend to be very poor. In this paper, indoor location estimation algorithm to improve the accuracy of object location, by correcting the location information obtained from a system that does not fully install, is proposed. In this paper, UWB-based Ubisense system that provides high position accuracy in an indoor environment was utilized. In conclusion, this paper was able to improve the positioning accuracy, by correcting that information about the location of the measured object in position estimation system.

In this paper, we propose an algorithm that jointly estimates the location and velocity of a near-field moving target in a pulse radar system. The proposed algorithm estimates the location and velocity corresponding to the outcome of orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) in a 4-dimensional (4D) location-velocity space. To address the high computational complexity of 4D parameter joint estimation, we propose an algorithm that iteratively estimates the target's 2D location and velocity sequentially. Through simulations, we analyze the estimation performance and verify the computational efficiency of the proposed algorithm.

General location aware systems are only applied to indoor and outdoor environments using more than three transmitters to estimate a fixed object location. Those kinds of systems have environmental restrictions that require an already established infrastructure. To solve this problem, an Object Location Estimation (OLE) algorithm based on PTP (Point To Point) communication has been proposed. However, the problem with this method is that deduction of performance parameters is not enough and location estimation is very difficult because of unknown restriction conditions. From experimental tests in this research, we determined that the performance parameters for restriction conditions are a maximum transmission distance of CSS communication and an optimum moving distance interval between personal locations. In this paper, a system applied OLE algorithm based on PTP communication is implemented using a CSS (Chirp Spread Spectrum) communication module. A maximum transmission distance for CSS communication and an optimum moving distance interval between personal locations are then deducted and studied to estimate a fixed object location for generalization.

The calibration method using the existing environmental characteristics is to correct taking advantage of the data that is followed Judgement on the environment. If a decision is not made on the environmental judgement, the use of traditional methods may increase rather than errors. In this paper, UWB-based localization system is utilized. We propose Location Correction Algorithm which is available on if you can not make a judgment about any circumstances for location estimation system. Reference Points was selected to observe the characteristics of the localization system. This paper searched the characteristics of the localization system in LOS environment and NLOS environment, and used data correcting the location information of the moving object by combining the two environmental characteristics. The Location Correction Algorithm is applied to the location measured from the location estimation system. This algorithm corrects for the location information of the object. As a result, the location accuracy improvement were observed.

The general way to use a triangulation method is based on PTMP communication between an object and wireless modules in an environment, which is established by more than three wireless modules, to recognize the location of an object. Thus, this method has a problem that the PTMP-based system can only be applied in an environment where the wireless infra is already established. In order to solve this problem, the PTP communication schemes have been proposed but they are insufficient to generalize because they lack specific verification. In this paper, problems of an existed location estimation algorithm based on PTP communication are analyzed, and we propose a location estimation algorithm of a fixed object that satisfyies the condition of a single receiver being substituted to multiple receivers. A location estimation system we designed and implemented using CSS wireless communication modules to evaluate the proposed algorithm. We verify, by experimental results, that the optimum moving interval for the location estimation is 3m in indoor environment of $10m{\times}16m{\times}1m$.

High impedance fault(HIF) is defined as a fault that the general overcurrent relay can not detect or interrupt. Especially when HIF occurs in residential areas, energized high voltage conductor results in fire hazard, equipment damage or personal threat. This paper proposes a fault location estimation algorithm for high impedance fault using wavelet transform. The algorithm is based on the wavelet analysis of the fault voltage and current signals. The performance of the proposed algorithm is tested on a typical 154kV korean transmission line system under various fault conditions. From the tests presented in this paper it can be concluded that a fault location estimation algorithm using wavelet transform can precisely calculate the fault point for HIF.
