Abstract

An indoor localisation system is designed based on passive tracking and a localisation system assisted with an active FMCW radar system. The system covers a sixty-meter point-to-point radius. The designed system operates within the UWB band at a frequency of 3.6GHz. The simulated system has four passive receivers as well as an integrated FMCW active radar and multiple transmitters that are tracked. A parametric sweep is utilised to optimize the results for the desired frequency. Simulations are performed within the Matlab simulation software environment.
