Mobile Location Using Improved Covariance Shaping Least-Squares Estimation in Cellular Systems

摘要

This Letter deals with the problem of non-line-of-sight (NLOS) in cellular systems devoted to location purposes. In conjugation with a variable loading technique, we present an efficient technique to make covariance shaping least squares estimator has robust capabilities against the NLOS effects. Compared with other methods, the proposed improved estimator has high accuracy under white Gaussian measurement noises and NLOS effects.
