Assume a number of mobile objects (robots, people wearing glasses, watches etc) are equipped witj UWB impulse radio very low power tags. The tags periodically beacon their position. We would like to be able to perform the joint localization of all objects in parallel. It may be required to force the tags to obey some distributed MAC protocol to help the localisation.
