Weelie’s Status Report for 3/9/2024

  • What did you personally accomplish this week on the project?

Last week I mainly did two major things.

  1. I helped writing the design report. Mostly I finished the algorithm part, the system design part, and some of the tradeoff part. After that, I helped change some minor errors in the design report.
  2. I implemented a general trilateration algorithm that could take in 3 distances and locations of UWB devices and return an estimated current location. I also started working on setting UWB devices to be tag and anchors such that a tag can receive multiple signals from anchors. The details can be found at our github repo: https://github.com/weelieguo/18500-dw1001
  • Is your progress on schedule or behind?

Based on the current schedule, I should work on localization algorithm for the following 2 weeks. Thus, my process is actually on schedule.

  • What deliverables do you hope to complete in the next week?

Since we haven’t retrieve our Raspi 4 yet, I will start working on the transaction between the tag(UWB device) and Raspi 4. And make the trilateration algorithm works on Raspi 4. Then, I will implement the protocol to choose between all the anchors devices because we only want to use 3 strongest signals (closest to the tag) to measure distances and used them for trilateration, which could include multithreading for UWB devices.
