Ultra-Wideband is an attractive technology for short range positioning, especially indoors. However, for normal Time of Arrival (ToA) positioning, at least 3 receivers with unblocked direct path to the transmitter are required. A requirement that is not always met. In this work, a novel algorithm for ToA positioning using only 2 receivers is presented. This is possible by exploiting reflections from one known flat reflector, for example ceiling or wall. The proposed algorithm was tested using self-developed UWB propagation simulator testbed.
