The accuracy of time difference of arrival (TDOA)-based source localization is influenced by sensor location deployment. Many studies focus on optimal sensor placement (OSP) for TDOA-based localization without sensor location noises…

This study presents a closed-form solution for localizing and synchronizing an acoustic sensor node with respect to a Wireless Acoustic Sensor Network (WASN). The aim is to allow efficient scaling of a WASN by individually calibrating newly…

A Gaussian error assumption is commonly adopted in the pseudorange measurement model for global navigation satellite system (GNSS) positioning, which leads to the conventional least squares (LS) estimator. In urban environments, however,…

This study explores the use of non-line-of-sight (NLOS) components in millimeter-wave (mmWave) communication systems for joint localization and environment sensing. The radar cross section (RCS) of a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)…

In this paper we study the problem of driving an agent to an unknown source whose location is estimated in real-time by a recursive optimization algorithm. The optimization criterion is subject to a least-square cost function constructed…

We consider the problem of estimating the 3D orientation of a user, using the downlink mmWave signals received from multiple base stations. We show that the received signals from several base stations, having known positions, can be used to…

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems play an essential role in direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation. A large number of antennas used in a MIMO system imposes a huge complexity burden on the popular DOA estimation algorithms, such…

The conventional direction-of-arrival (DoA) estimation approaches only be effective when the line-of-sight (LoS) link exists, while in the case of the non-line-of-sight (NLoS) situation, the spatial angle can not be captured and thus the…

The maximum likelihood (ML) estimator can be applied to localize a target mobile device using the RSS and TOA. However, the ML estimator for the RSS-TOA-based target localization problem is nonconvex and nonlinear, having no analytical…

This paper introduces a novel method for solving the single-source localization problem, specifically addressing the case of trilateration. We formulate the problem as a weighted least-squares problem in the squared distances and…

Non-line-of-sight (NLOS) imaging aims to reconstruct the three-dimensional hidden scenes from the data measured in the line-of-sight, which uses photon time-of-flight information encoded in light after multiple diffuse reflections. The…

In this paper, the problem of target localization in the presence of outlying sensors is tackled. This problem is important in practice because in many real-world applications the sensors might report irrelevant data unintentionally or…

Real-time, high-precision localization in large-scale wireless networks faces two primary challenges: clock offsets caused by network asynchrony and non-line-of-sight (NLoS) conditions. To tackle these challenges, we propose a…

AI inference scaling is often tuned through 1D heuristics (a fixed reasoning pass) or 2D bivariate trade-offs (e.g., accuracy vs. compute), which fail to consider cost and latency constraints. We introduce a 3D optimization framework that…

Estimating the direction of arrival (DOA) of sources is an important problem in aerospace and vehicular communication, localization and radar. In this paper, we consider a challenging multi-source DOA estimation task, where the receiving…

Realizing relative localization by leveraging inter-robot local measurements is a challenging problem, especially in the presence of measurement noise. Motivated by this challenge, in this paper we propose a novel and systematic 3-D…

We introduce a novel method for oriented place recognition with 3D LiDAR scans. A Convolutional Neural Network is trained to extract compact descriptors from single 3D LiDAR scans. These can be used both to retrieve near-by place candidates…

Localization of radio frequency sources over multipath channels is a difficult problem arising in applications such as outdoor or indoor gelocation. Common approaches that combine ad-hoc methods for multipath mitigation with indirect…

Non-line-of-sight (NLOS) imaging is a rapidly growing field seeking to form images of objects outside the field of view, with potential applications in search and rescue, reconnaissance, and even medical imaging. The critical challenge of…

Traditional visible light positioning (VLP) systems estimate receivers' coordinates based on the known light-emitting diode (LED) coordinates. However, the LED coordinates are not always known accurately. Because of the structural changes…
