Abstract
We present experimental results for a location estimation method, evaluated in a static, non-line-of-sight indoor environment at 6.25 GHz, using an array antenna to locate single-antenna remote terminals. Two metrics, both based on the absolute value of the angle-delay signature, are compared, in terms of the rate of correct room detection and the average excess distance error in meters. The performance is also examined as a function of bandwidth, number of antennas, and frequency sampling interval.
