Good morning

Today I am going to present on topic “companision of different UWB indoor localization

methods”

first slide-

Here it is the introduction page which tells about what is positioning system and compassion of
UWB and GPS technology

from using UWB we find indoor localization while gps is suited for treating outside
environment.

Indoor positioning detect an object position in a physical space in real time .

Indoor positioning systems (IPSs) detect an object’s position in a physical space in real time.

IPSs use a range of positioning techniques, each with its own set of advantages and
disadvantages in terms of precision, cost, technology, scalability, reliability, and security.

Because of the rising demand for precise indoor positioning, it has become a hot topic of
research, with a variety of solutions presented. To address the difficulty of determining
position, several of these methods use current technologies.

second slide

this tell about what is ips and its working . IPS is a wireless network of devices used to find
things within a building using UWB localization method. Also IPS relies on nearby anchors which
are known as nodes with known placement which actively locate to gps ans also it is completely
local to our smartphone or other navigation devices and using this we establish connection
passively.

Indoor positioning differs from outdoor positioning in that it has various requirements. Indoor
positioning systems include five key quality metrics: (1) effect of random errors on the system;
(2) coverage and resolution; (3) impact on the building’s infrastructure; (4) the latency in
making location updates; and (5) system accuracy and precision

Slide 3
this slide explains about deffirent UWB indoor localization methods which are time difference
of arrival (TdoA) AND Two way ranging (TWR)

With TDoA, tags transmit in regular intervals, or refresh rates using brief ‘Blink messages’.
These Blinks are processed by all of the Anchors within communication range .

TWR, by contrast, determines the Time of Flight of the UWB radio frequency signal, then
calculates the distance between the nodes, by multiplying the time by the speed of light. If that
sounds more complicated, it’s because it is. The TWR process is applied between the tag and
the demanded Anchor, and only one Anchor may be actively involved in TWR at a given time
slot.

(Please read slides then after )

slides 4

Images, here comparison is done between two methods and left side has TWR while right side
has TdoA,

TWR determines times of flight and then multiplied the time with speed of light to calculate the
distance between nodes. While TdoA is based on measuring the time difference between when
signal arrives at anchor sensors .

Slides 5

this slide tells about popularity of UWB:-

the high data rate of UWB is excellent choice for near field data transfer also UWB offers
excellent accuracy rate and as frequency of UWB is low so the signal does not interfere with
walls and objects and thus improves accuracy of system

this deals with various UWB positioning algorithm which support indoor positioning and they
have five categories

1. ToA

2.Hybrid

3. RSS

4. TdoA
5. AoA

SLIDES 6 :-

This slide tells about various uses of UWB based on indoor localization such as to provide
navigation services inside building and in providing time management and energy
management .

UWB allows the operation of multiples devices without interference at the same time in the
same space. It can be used as a communication link in a sensor network. It can also create a
security bubble around a specific area to ensure security. It is the best candidate to support a
variety of WBAN applications.

slides 7

this are the conclusion which tells about various method of UWB positioning we discussed here
and it’s comparison to other existing technologies

these are the references from which we have taken help for presenting this power point
