Abstract
- Network localization and navigation (NLN) is a promising paradigm, in which mobile nodes exploit spatiotemporal cooperation, to provide reliable location information for a diverse range of wireless applications. This paper presents a theoretical foundation of NLN, including a mathematical formulation for NLN, an introduction of equivalent Fisher information analysis, and determination of the fundamental limits of localization accuracy. Key ingredients such as spatiotemporal cooperation, array signal processing, and map exploitation are then studied. We also develop a geometric interpretation to provide insights into the essence of NLN for network design. Finally, the paper highlights the connection between the theoretical foundation and algorithm development for NLN, guiding the design and operation of practical localization systems.
