Abstract:
A positioning sensor includes a transmission antenna transmitting a transmission signal, a plurality of reception antennae, each receiving a reception signals, a receiver observing the each of the plurality of reception signals in a predetermined period, a processor, and a memory, in which the processor calculates a plurality of complex transfer functions based on the each of the plurality of reception signals, records each of the plurality of complex transfer functions in the memory as being associated with each time point, extracts, among the plurality of complex transfer functions, a plurality of pairs of two complex transfer functions respectively corresponding to two time points in a predetermined interval, calculates a plurality of pieces of differential information, and estimates to a location of a moving body based on each of the plurality of pieces of differential information.
