Wireless Hybrid Enhanced Mobile Radio Estimators - Phase 2 (WHERE2)

Start date: Jul 1, 2010, End date: Oct 31, 2013,

The availability of position information plays an increasing role in wireless communications networks already today and will be an integral part of future systems. They inherently can offer the ability for stand-alone positioning especially in situations where conventional satellite based positioning systems such as GPS fail (e.g., indoor). In this framework, positioning information is an importan ...
