Title: Analysis and modeling of the wideband radio channel for indoor geolocation applications

Abstract: "Indoor radio propagation studies in recent years have been motivated by wireless telecommunications applications such as PCS, Wireless LANs, wireless PBX, etc. and their focus has been towards characterizing the signal coverage and RMS multipath delay spread that influence system infrastructure and transceiver design. Emerging position location (geolocation) applications, (civilian, such as E-911 services, and military) require a significantly different characterization of the radio channel. The parameters of importance in this case are the probability of detecting the direct line-of-sight path and the distribution of range error when it is not detected.

Measurements, simulation, analysis, and modeling of the indoor radio channel are considered with geolocation applications in view. Qualitative and quantitative frameworks are developed incorporating the parameters of importance for geolocation applications. The drawbacks of existing wideband channel models (for e.g. the JTC models for indoor PCS applications) are illustrated. New radio channel models are proposed for geolocation applications and techniques for a generalized model that is suitable for both telecommunications and geolocation applications are suggested."
