A distributed localization and synchronization algorithm for full-duplex transmission systems
The emergence of full-duplex (FD) communication technology can enable the efficient network localization and synchronization. In this paper, we develop a distributed algorithm for localization and synchronization using FD two-frame transmission. Based on the sparse structure of the wireless channels, arrival times of different signals are estimated by an iteration method. Then, the positions and clock offsets of agents are determined by the weighted least squares and semidefinite programming (SDP) method. Our simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness and performance of the distributed algorithm in the network localization and synchronization.
