In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), ultra-wideband (UWB) technology is essential for robot localization systems, especially for methods of the simultaneous estimation of position and orientation. However, current approaches frequently depend on rigid body models, which require multiple base stations and lead to substantial equipment costs. This paper presents a cost-effective UWB SL model utilizing the angle of arrival (AOA) and double-sided two-way ranging (DS-TWR). To improve localization accuracy, we propose a self-localization algorithm based on constrained weighted least squares (SL-CWLS), integrating a weighted matrix derived from a measured noise model. Additionally, we derive the constrained Cramér–Rao lower bound (CCRLB) to analyze the performance of the proposed algorithm. Simulation results indicate that the proposed method achieves high estimation accuracy, while real-world experiments validate the simulation results. Full article

Combining multiple devices for localization has important applications in the military field. This paper exploits the land-based short-wave platforms and satellites for fusion localization. The ionospheric reflection height error and satellite position errors have a great impact on the short-wave localization and satellite localization accuracy, respectively. In this paper, an iterative constrained weighted least squares (ICWLS) algorithm is proposed for these two kinds of errors. The algorithm converts the nonconvex equation constraints to linear constraints using the results of the previous iteration, thus ensuring convergence to the globally optimal solution. Simulation results show that the localization accuracy of the algorithm can reach the corresponding Constrained Cramér–Rao Lower Bound (CCRLB). Finally, the localization results of the two methods are fused using Kalman filtering. Simulations show that the fused localization accuracy is improved compared to the single-means localization.
