Abstract
Localization within buildings is a demanding task. The principles of a radio technology are described, which allow to determine direction and distance between a transponder and a receiver. Such information can be determined by performing phase measurements based on mathematical methods such as MUSIC for example. Results from field tests conducted with several prototypes have demonstrated the efficiency of this technology indoors as well as outdoors. The demo-application “ArgusNetViewer” shows the localization results in a position plan in a graphical representation and provides an exhaustive protocol. For AAL, such information can be used in the localization process.
