TW-TOA based positioning in the presence of clock imperfections
Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift, 2016

This manuscript studies the positioning problem based on two-way time-of-arrival (TW-TOA) measurements in semi-asynchronous wireless sensor networks in which the clock of a target node is unsynchronized with the reference time. Since the optimal estimator for this problem involves difficult nonconvex optimization, two suboptimal estimators are proposed based on the squared-range least squares and the least absolute mean of residual errors. We formulated the former approach as an extended general trust region subproblem (EGTR) and propose a simple technique to solve it approximately. The latter approach is formulated as a difference of convex functions programming (DCP), which can be solved using a concave–convex procedure. Simulation results illustrate the high performance of the proposed techniques, especially for the DCP approach.
