Position and Orientation Estimation through Millimeter Wave MIMO in 5G Systems
Millimeter wave signals and large antenna arrays are considered enabling
technologies for future 5G networks. While their benefits for achieving
high-data rate communications are well-known, their potential advantages for
accurate positioning are largely undiscovered. We derive the Cram\'{e}r-Rao
bound (CRB) on position and rotation angle estimation uncertainty from
millimeter wave signals from a single transmitter, in the presence of
scatterers. We also present a novel two-stage algorithm for position and
rotation angle estimation that attains the CRB for average to high
signal-to-noise ratio. The algorithm is based on multiple measurement vectors
matching pursuit for coarse estimation, followed by a refinement stage based on
the space-alternating generalized expectation maximization algorithm. We find
that accurate position and rotation angle estimation is possible using signals
from a single transmitter, in either line-of- sight, non-line-of-sight, or
obstructed-line-of-sight conditions.Comment: The manuscript has been revised, and increased from 27 to 31 pages.
