Source code and Master's Portfolio titled: "Characterization of Reflectors in a Wireless Channel to Aid Low-Power Indoor Localization"

Portfolio

• IEEE Conference Style 6-Page Paper
• Full Portfolio (literature review, project plan, testing & results, appendice)

Source Code

PyVISA

• SA_CTRL_function.py : Python class using PyVISA package to communicate with a signal analyzer/FSV
• SG_CTRL_function.py : Python class using PyVISA package to communicate with a signal generator
• main_sweep_script.py : Main script for performing a parallel frequency sweep.

PDP Hilbert Measurement

• pdp_gen.m : Post processes frequency magnitudes obtained during sweep, converting to power delay profiles using the Hilbert filter.
• includes frequency sweep input data.

Ray Tracing PDP Simulation

• auditorium_test.m : creates simple 2D ray distribution for any specified room geometry and reflector location.
• also contains classes for modeling AoA reflection etc. for ray tracer

Ray Tracing Reflcetor Prediction

• pdp_locus.m : Novel 2D ray tracing using power delay profile delay times to predict the location of a reflector in a wireless channel.
