Popis: | This work assesses the applicability of the well-known SAGE algorithm for time-of-arrival estimation on ultra-wideband (UWB) measurements taken with cheap COTS hardware. Performance is comparable with a simple leading-edge detection (LDE) algorithm, establishing a general precision of approximately 30 cm/60 cm. SAGE performance is slightly worse in general (33 cm/71 cm), but is more stable in non-line-of-sight (NLOS) caused by human body presence. A more detailed breakdown of the effect of incidence angle on one-dimensional ranging accuracy is studied in relationship to human body shadowing effects. Within a cone of 135 degrees in front of the UWB device (pointing away from the body), the azimuthal incidence angle has no influence on the ranging performance of either algorithm. |
