New Insights and Applications in Positioning Systems
This special issue belongs to the section “Microwave and Wireless Communications“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The field of positioning systems has seen significant advances in recent years, with various representative systems such as Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), Radar, and Lidar being used to calculate positions. However, with the increasing demand for more accurate and reliable position information, the limitations of these existing technologies have become apparent. As a result, there is a growing need for new positioning systems that can overcome these limitations and provide more accurate and reliable location information. The Special Issue on "New Sights and Applications in Positioning Systems" aims to address this need by exploring the latest advances and innovations in the field, with a focus on new methods, technologies, and applications for positioning systems. The authors will provide valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities facing this field.
