Experiment of radio monitoring using geometric-stochastic channel modeling and hybrid localization
Methods and algorithms for radio monitoring including their design and analysis can be considered as a complex issue. In general, the associated system efficiency should be validated by appropriate experiments based on well defined procedures, ideally including real data, and the results obtained by the experiments should be repeatable. This paper describes the planning of radio monitoring methods by dedicated computer simulations. Hereby, an appropriate mathematical approach is used to generate a geometric-stochastic wave propagation model, whereas the direction of the individual propagation paths is affected by noise. In a second step, a hybrid localization method is implemented and tested in above environment to assess its performance. The results help both to improve the design of radio monitoring methods and to optimize the system architecture.
