They are classified into several categories and their comparison is presented in two tables: one each for NLOS identification and error mitigation. NLOS identification methods are classified based on range estimates, channel statistics, and the actual maps of the building and environment. NLOS error mitigation methods are categorized based on direct path and statistics-based detection. © 2009 Institut TELECOM and Springer-Verlag. %K Channel statistics; Direct paths; Error mitigation; Identification method; NLOS error; Nonline of sight; Positioning algorithms; Positioning methods, Error detection; Mobile telecommunication systems; Position measurement; Surveys, Error statistics %P 301-311 %T Survey of NLOS identification and error mitigation problems in UWB-based positioning algorithms for dense environments %V 65 %A J.
