| Abstract | In TOA based indoor geolocation systems ranging error is a function of the bandwidth of the system and the availability of the direct path between the transmitter and the receiver. With a detected direct path (DDP) condition and UWB transmission, precise range estimates are feasible while in undetected direct path (UDP) conditions large ranging errors occur which can not be cured with the increase of the transmission power or bandwidth. This paper uses Markov chain and the results of measurement calibrated ray tracing with 500 MHz bandwidth in a typical office environment to introduce a novel model for the behavior of the ranging errors observed by a randomly moving mobile terminal in an indoor area. The model divides the behavior of the ranging error into three categories. The first is DDP where the errors are usually small and mainly caused by multipath. The second category, natural UDP (NUDP), is caused by path-loss and exhibits medium ranging errors. The third category, shadowed UDP (SUDP), is caused by objects blocking the direct path and demonstrates very large ranging errors. Parameters of the Markov model are calculated from the results of wideband channel characteristics for different locations of a mobile. Results of the simulated errors from the modeling and the actual errors from the channel profile show close agreement. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
