Phase difference of arrival range estimation technique

Range estimation is an integral part of all localization techniques. range information is usually inferred from strength of received signal, time of arrival and time-difference of arrival. the uncertainty in estimation may be caused by noise and multipath effect. this work focuses on range estimatio...
