Abstract
This paper introduces the technology Time of Arrival (TOA) based on chirp pulses (according to IEEE 802.15.4a) as a means to perform localization in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN's) active at 2.4 GHz. Advantages and disadvantages of the technology are discussed and act as a guideline for improving localization accuracy. Tests concerning TOA are performed by means of the location engine of Nanotron. Adapting this engine leads to improved localization results. It is shown that TOA measurements are susceptible to reflections and dynamic environments. |
