MiRACLE:Millimeter scale Repeatable and Absolute Coherent Localization Enablers

Project description

Improving wireless localisation accuracy and reliability

Wireless localisation and sensing are gaining momentum, driven by growing demands for accuracy and reliability in applications such as autonomous vehicles, indoor navigation, smart factories, and emergency response systems. Supported by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the MiRACLE project aims to bring precision measurement into wireless localisation. The goal is absolute positioning with sub-millimetre accuracy that works reliably across different environments. To achieve this, MiRACLE will make use of coherent signals across all cellular frequency bands, including the emerging FR3 band (7-24 GHz) envisioned for 6G networks. The project will also develop an open-source test platform, accelerating research and innovation in next-generation wireless technologies.

Objective

In recent years, wireless localization and sensing have gained significant traction in the industry, and the requirements in terms of accuracy and reliability have become tighter and tighter. Project Millimeter scale Repeatable and Absolute Coherent Localization Enablers (MiRACLE) aims to blur the line between wireless localization and metrology by pushing the accuracy of absolute wireless localization systems below the millimeter accuracy while maintaining repeatable performance over environmental changes. This will enhance the efficiency of future manufacturing plants, as well as enable life-saving technologies like telesurgery. To achieve these ambitious goals, it will exploit coherent information from a combination of all the cellular frequency bands, including the upcoming FR3 band (7GHz-24GHz) present in the 6G roadmap. Due to the recent introduction of FR3, there is a lack of commercial experimental hardware operating in that band. For this reason, the project also aims to provide an open-source experimental setup capable of operating at those frequencies.
