Abstract

This paper proposes lower bounds for the error of passive localization in wireless networks, where both the transmitters and receivers are randomly distributed. By modelling the locations of nodes as instances of homogeneous Poisson point processes, performance limits under different channel conditions as well as network structures are investigated and presented in closed form. Numerical results indicate that the proposed performance limits can well reflect the actual localization accuracy, and illustrate how the performance is affected by various network parameters.
