We present Wi-Lo, which allows to convert an ordinary 802.11 (WiFi) access point into an internet of things (IoT) gateway supporting the low-power wide area network (LPWAN) technology LoRa in the downlink. Our Wi-Lo system only requires a…

Nowadays, cities provide much more than shopping opportunities or working spaces. Individual locations such as parks and squares are used as meeting points and local recreation areas by many people. To ensure that they remain attractive in…

Positioning with one single communication between base stations and user devices can effectively save air time and thus expand the user volume to infinite. However, this usually demands accurate synchronization between base stations.…

Indoor localization systems have become increasingly important in a wide range of applications, including industry, security, logistics, and emergency services. However, the growing demand for accurate localization has heightened concerns…

In Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS)-denied environments, terrestrial signals of opportunity (SoOP) offer an alternative for positioning, but synchronization impairments such as clock offsets, drift, and multipath limit performance.…

The problem of geolocation of a transmitter via time difference of arrival (TDOA) and frequency difference of arrival (FDOA) is given as a system of polynomial equations. This allows for the use of homotopy continuation-based methods from…

Low Power Wide Area (LPWA) networks are making spectacular progress from design, standardisation, to commercialisation. At this time of fast-paced adoption, it is of utmost importance to analyse how well these technologies will scale as the…

LoRaWAN is a Low Power Wide Area Network technology featuring long transmission ranges and a simple MAC layer, which can support sensor data collection, control applications and reliable services thanks to the flexibility offered by a large…

This paper presents the first comprehensive real-world measurement campaign comparing LR-FHSS and LoRa modulations within LoRaWAN networks in urban environments. Conducted in Halifax, Canada, the campaign used a LoRaWAN platform capable of…

In this paper, we deliver a discussion regarding the role of Low-Power Wide-Area Networks (LPWAN) in the cellular Internet-of-Things (IoT) infrastructure to support massive Machine-Type Communications (mMTC) in next-generation wireless…

Location-based service (LBS) applications proliferate and support transportation, entertainment, and more. Modern mobile platforms, with smartphones being a prominent example, rely on terrestrial and satellite infrastructures (e.g., global…

Inter-connected sensors and actuators have scaled down to small embedded devices such as wearables, and at the same time meet a massive deployment at the Internet edge: the Internet of Things (IoT). Many of these IoT devices run on…

Both GPS and WiFi based localization have been exploited in recent years, yet most researches focus on localizing at home without environment context. Besides, the near home or workplace area is complex and has little attention in smart…

Low Power Wide Area (LPWA) networks are attracting a lot of attention primarily because of their ability to offer affordable connectivity to the low-power devices distributed over very large geographical areas. In realizing the vision of…

Accurate indoor localization has long been a challenging problem due to the presence of multipath. Joint direction-of-arrival (DOA) and time delay (TD) estimation is a promising technique for accurate indoor Localization in next generation…

Within the LPWAN framework, the LoRa modulation adopted by LoRaWAN technology has garnered significant interest as a connectivity solution for IoT applications due to its ability to offer low-cost, low-power, and long-range communications.…

In the past decade, we have witnessed explosive growth in the number of low-power embedded and Internet-connected devices, reinforcing the new paradigm, Internet of Things (IoT). The low power wide area network (LPWAN), due to its…

Global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) are widely used for navigation and time distribution, features indispensable for critical infrastructure such as mobile communication networks, as well as emerging technologies like automated…

Indoor location identification and navigation need to be as simple, seamless, and ubiquitous as its outdoor GPS-based counterpart is. It would be of great convenience to the mobile user to be able to continue navigating seamlessly as he or…

Standalone Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) are known to provide positioning accuracy of a few meters in open sky conditions. This accuracy can drop significantly when the line-of-sight (LOS) paths to some GNSS satellites are…
