Abstract

Abstract:

TDOA/FDOA localization is an important wireless positioning mechanism for moving emitters， and its location accuracy is greatly affected by measurement errors of TDOA/FDOA and prior measurement errors of sensor models （including sensor position and velocity）. To improve the localization performance under the condition of high-level measurement errors， a TDOA/FDOA cooperative localization method for multiple disjoint sources is proposed based on weighted multidimensional scaling analysis in this paper. The proposed method consists of two calculation stages： Stage-a and Stage-b. Specifically， in Stage-a， two groups of scalar product matrices in multidimensional scaling analysis are employed to form the positioning relationship， which is further used to yield the solutions for the locations of multiple disjoint sources and sensors by constructing a weighting matrix. In Stage-b， a constrained minimization model is established based on the intermediate variables introduced in multidimensional scaling analysis to determine the estimation errors in Stage-a. By solving this optimization problem， the expression for the localization errors in Stage-a are obtained， so as to refine the position and velocity estimates of the multiple disjoint sources as well as the sensors. In addition， the first-order error analysis is employed to prove that the proposed method can asymptotically reach the Cramér-Rao Bound （CRB） accuracy. Simulation results show that the new method outperforms the existing TDOA/FDOA positioning methods.
