Key Points

To develop a location estimation framework using statistical modeling that achieves high accuracy from coarse radio measurements without requiring specialized hardware or network alterations.
Formulated a statistical signal power model to derive physical position from inaccurate signal measurements instead of traditional geometric approaches.
Evaluated the statistical modeling framework using computer-based simulated experiments.
Validated positioning performance through empirical real-world field tests in cellular network environments.
Demonstrated that statistical signal power modeling can overcome the limited positioning accuracy inherent in standard cellular cell-ID methods.
Empirical field trials and simulations confirmed improved location accuracy using noisy, generic signal measurements without modifying mobile terminals.
