Popis: A new embedded ranging system in the ISM band is described. The proposed indoor ranging system combines the advantages of both broadband and narrowband signals to achieve high ranging accuracy in the presence of strong multipath reflections to achieve a good link budget and to be compliant with spectral regulations. The system is based on a WLAN transceiver (with embedded ranging specific circuits) and uses the same frequency band for both communication and ranging purposes so that no separate dedicated ranging transceiver is needed. A prototype has been implemented to evaluate the performance of the proposed technique in a realistic environment. Experimental results show ranging accuracies of less than 20 cm.
