Abstract

This paper considers the problem of wireless location in code-divisionmultiple-access (CDMA)cellular system. Through the method of jointly estimating angle of arrival(AOA) and time ofarrival (TOA), a novel scheme is proposed for radiolocation in multipathenvironment, especiallywhen line-of-sight (LOS) path is not available to every base station involvedin location servicefor a mobile subscriber. The Cramer-Rao bound (CRB) is derived for the jointestimator. Based onsimulation results, the accuracy of the proposed wireless location scheme inCDMA system is assessed.
