Abstract

As the communication field continues to evolve, positioning technology has emerged as a crucial and valuable research avenue. Particularly, indoor positioning presents an innovative and trending direction in this technology. During the research process of indoor positioning, it is essential to consider the impact of various environmental disturbances on positioning accuracy. Additionally, efforts should be geared towards minimizing these environmental influences on the positioning system's performance and reducing the complexity of the positioning algorithm. The ideal scenario for indoor positioning involves using a relatively straightforward positioning algorithm to obtain results with high positioning accuracy. That said, it is a challenging balance to strike, given the intricate factors that influence the effectiveness of indoor positioning. This paper focuses on the Time Difference of Arrival (TDOA) localization method. We explore the TDOA-based triangle centroid algorithm, Fang's algorithm, and Chan's algorithm, all prominent methods in this field. Each of these approaches presents unique strengths and challenges, offering diverse solutions to address the complexity of indoor positioning. Their comparative analysis will provide insights into the development of efficient, accurate, and straightforward indoor positioning techniques.
