Abstract:
Systems and devices for phase-accurate vehicle positioning are disclosed. These systems and devices facilitate high-precision estimations of positions, orientations, velocities, and accelerations of signal nodes in a distributed network (e.g., including base stations and vehicles, such as aircraft or unmanned aerial systems (UASs)). The positioning estimations are based on time-of-arrival estimations of low-bandwidth signals and a phase-accurate distributed coherence algorithm. In some cases, the low-bandwidth signals may further facilitate joint communications and positioning estimations between the signal nodes.
