Indoor Positioning using Decawave MDEK1001

摘要

The problem of determining the object's position has recently become an active research area, due to the increased demand for accurate outdoor and indoor positioning. This paper presents a preliminary testing campaign of the Decawave MDEK1001 development kit which uses UWB transmissions to determine the position of a tag in a real-time location system. The performance is evaluated in terms of positioning accuracy, and measurement error variation of the tag coordinates. The results analysis highlights the potential of the system and provides guidelines on how to increase the positioning accuracy.
