- Abstract
[EN] In recent years, localization for capsule endoscopy applications using Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology has become an attractive field of study due to its potential benefits for patients. Performance analysis of RF-based localization techniques are very limited in literature. Most of the available studies rely on software simulations using digital human models. Nonetheless, no realistic studies based on in-vivo measurements has been reported yet. This paper investigates the performance of RSS-based technique for three-dimensional (3D) localization in the UWB frequency band. Impact of receivers selection as well as of the evaluated path loss model on the localization accuracy is investigated. Results obtained through CST-based simulations and from recently conducted in-vivo measurements are presented and compared.
