Techniques are provided for improving ranging accuracy of ultrawideband (UWB) devices. An example method for obtaining a distance measurement with a wireless node includes obtaining a first distance measurement using a first radio link, determining a status of a second radio link in response to the first distance measurement being less than a threshold distance, configuring one or more transceiver parameters associated with the second radio link in response to determining the second radio link is utilizing a non-line of sight path, and obtaining a second distance measurement using the second radio link and the one or more transceiver parameters.
