Article: New vehicular technology data have been reported by scientists at Hong Kong University of Science & Technology.(Report)

"Precise time-of-arrival (TOA) estimation is challenging in dense multipath environments because the leading-edge path of a received signal may not be the strongest path. In this paper, we propose a threshold-based coherent TOA estimation scheme for impulse radio-based ultrawideband (UWB) systems," scientists in Hong Kong, People's Republic of China report.

"The scheme uses a dedicated ranging sequence with a good cross-correlation property and a search-back process that considers the count of threshold crossings to find the leading edge of the received signal. We derive an approximate closed-form expression for the optimal threshold that restrains the mean ...
