Bayesian Joint Synchronization and Localization Based on Asymmetric Time-stamp Exchange
In this work, we study the joint synchronization and localization (sync&loc) of Mobile Nodes (MNs) in ultra dense networks. In particular, we deploy an asymmetric timestamp exchange mechanism between MNs and Access Nodes (ANs), that, traditionally, provides us with information about the MNs' clock offset and skew. However, information about the distance between an AN and a MN is also intrinsic to the propagation delay experienced by exchanged time-stamps. In addition, we utilize Angle of Arrival (AoA) estimation to determine the incoming direction of time-stamp exchange packets, which gives further information about the MNs' location. Finally, we employ Bayesian Recursive Filtering (BRF) to combine the aforementioned pieces of information and jointly estimate the position and clock parameters of MNs. The simulation results indicate that the Root Mean Square Errors (RMSEs) of position and clock offset estimation are kept below 1 meter and 1 ns, respectively.

DNN-assisted Particle-based Bayesian Joint Synchronization and Localization
In this work, we propose a Deep neural network-assisted Particle Filter-based (DePF) approach to address the Mobile User (MU) joint synchronization and localization (sync\&loc) problem in ultra dense networks. In particu…
PositionA New TOA Localization and Synchronization System with Virtually Synchronized Periodic Asymmetric Ranging Network
In this article, we design a new time-of-arrival (TOA) system for simultaneous user device (UD) localization and synchronization with a periodic asymmetric ranging network, namely PARN. The PARN includes one primary anch…
A Simplified Algorithm for Joint Real-Time Synchronization, NLoS Identification, and Multi-Agent Localization
Real-time, high-precision localization in large-scale wireless networks faces two primary challenges: clock offsets caused by network asynchrony and non-line-of-sight (NLoS) conditions. To tackle these challenges, we pro…
D-SLATS: Distributed Simultaneous Localization and Time Synchronization
Through the last decade, we have witnessed a surge of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and with that a greater need to choreograph their actions across both time and space. Although these two problems, namely time synch…
RIS-aided Joint Localization and Synchronization with a Single-Antenna Receiver: Beamforming Design and Low-Complexity Estimation
Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) have attracted enormous interest thanks to their ability to overcome line-of-sight blockages in mmWave systems, enabling in turn accurate localization with minimal infrastructur…
