CHAPTER-4
SIMULATIONS
Mobile location tracking and velocity estimation with Kalman filtering method
are investigated with computer simulations. In the first scenario, three base
stations are located at coordinates (3, 2), (6.5, 5), and (1, 7) (in km). A mobile
station starting with its initial position (3.01, 5) moves rightward along the x-
axis with a constant velocity 15 m/s,and arrives at position (3.9, 5). The
estimated mobile positions are first obtained from the TOA geometric location
method. Kalman filtering is then used to find a smooth track. In Kalman filters,
the parameters R and Q are chosen to be 22,500 and 0.05, respectively. The
processing rate of samples for the Kalman filter is first chosen to be 2 sample/
s. The top figure of the simulated results in Fig. 2 shows a disorderly track.
When the sample rate is reduced to 0.5 sample/s, an improved mobile track is
observed.

CHAPTER-5
CONCLUSIONS
A mobile location tracking method with Kalman filter is presented for position
tracking and velocity estimation. The mobile location estimates are obtained
from TOA geometric location technique. Kalman filtering and post-Kalman
filter smoothing methods are used to process the sequence of location
estimates for position tracking and velocity estimation.It can be seen that by
carefully adjusting the processing rate of Kalman filtering, smooth location
tracks can be obtained. The post-Kalman-filter smoothing method further
improves the velocity estimation and the smoothness of the mobile track.
