Abstract

Peer-based positioning of nodes in an environment is disclosed. A node is able to determine its own position using sources. The sources may include fixed and/or mobile beacons. Each of the sources is associated with a distance error and a position error. These errors, along with distance measurements between the node and each of the sources, are used to determine a position and a total positioning error, which reflects the accuracy of the determined position.
