There is a lower boundary for the synthesized beamwidth with a fixed array scale, and the aperture efficiency is inversely proportional to the desired beamwidth as well. Thus, for millimeter-wave applications, a trade-off design should be considered between the desired beamwidth and the aperture efficiency with a fixed antenna array.","PeriodicalId":197691,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 10th Asia-Pacific Conference on Antennas and Propagation (APCAP)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124294236","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Secondly, the relative time of flight (rTOF) is used to establish the localization model, and the rough estimation of target location is obtained from semi-definite programming (SDP). Then the least squares (LS) is used to solve the target location. Finally, we implement the proposed system in the real indoor environment, and the experimental result shows that the proposed system can achieve a localization accuracy of 1.3 m in the NLOS environment.","PeriodicalId":197691,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 10th Asia-Pacific Conference on Antennas and Propagation (APCAP)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129469477","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
