To find the relative positional relationship accurately and efficiently without pre-installed infrastructure in emergent scenarios like firefighting, we proposed a rotating-anchor based indoor geolocation system using time of arrival (TOA) technique in this paper. In this system, the positioning problem is regarded as a template-matching problem to estimate direction of the target. Based on preliminary results, further measurements that the tester held the locator and turned around continuously without any stop. The TOA ranging error for continuous rotation measurement was analyzed and proved to follow non-Guassian with impulsive characteristic in this paper. According to such error characteristics, a direction estimation algorithm of maximum correntropy criterion-based matching algorithm was proposed in this paper. The performance of algorithm was validated by comparing with the least mean square and least mean p-norm with empirical measurements.
