A Three-Dimensional Position System Using Digital TDE Receiver and Cylindrical Array Antenna

Article Preview

Abstract:

Based on the digital time delay estimation (TDE) and Gauss-Newton Interpolation algorithms, the circular error probability (CEP) of the proposed four-station position system using time difference of arrival (TDOA) over Rayleigh fading channel was studied by numerical computation in three-dimension space. The hybrid three-station TDOA and direction of arrival (DOA) position system was used to improve the reliability of four-station TDOA position system. Simulations indicate that the accuracy of the proposed position system is significantly decreased by reducing one measuring station and providing one direction of arrival (DOA) measurement.
