CA01: Radio Localization Techniques: satellite, indoor, in tunnels, autonomous

Monday, August 18  13:40-15:40,  Room #20

In the last years, the different techniques to obtain information about the location of a radio terminal have really boomed. The workhorse in this respect is GPS, now augmented and integrated by other Global Satellite Navigation Systems like Russia’s GLONASS and Europe GALILEO. The reliability and availability of such systems will benefit form their mutual integration in new-generation receivers, nonetheless they still cannot give any indication when the terminal is indoor due to the low power of the received signal. Other “terrestrial” systems come to the aid in this respect, based on cellular networks, Wi-Fi signals, or even opportunity wideband radio signals like those emitted by television repeaters. The session will examine the latest results about such topics, and in particular about the integration of GNSS with “local” positioning elements.
