[en] Because of the near-field nature of radio propagation, spherical wave-front and multipath effect are prominent in indoor scenarios, making localization even more difficult. In this paper, we propose a three-dimensional (3D) indoor localization algorithm that takes these issues into account. Specifically, we first adopted a high-resolution channel parameter estimation method for path delays based on the Space-Alternating Generalized Expectation-maximization (SAGE), and then these path delays are adopted in the 3D localization principles based on the target-antenna geometry. The proposed algorithm is validated by numerical simulations, where the channel data is generated by the propagation graph (PG) to model the true wireless propagation closely in the testing scenarios. The results demonstrate that the proposed approach can deal with both point and non-point targets with 3D localization errors of less than 30 cm for 97% of the testing trails in a 10×20×3 m3 indoor space.
