AB High precise indoor positioning is the spotlightfor the new mobile generation 5G. Ultra-Wide Band (UWB)technology stands out as the creditable preference for locatingthe user in indoor scenarios. The principal limitation of thistechnology appears in the coverage area that reaches a few tensof meters. In our case of study, we have simulated a conceivablereal environment with UWB and Long Term Evolution (LTE)base stations for positioning users. In this scenario, users havebeen tracked by an Extended Kalman Filter (EKF), a memorystate filter to predict the movement of the user that improves theperformance of the system. In regions that receivers only trackisolated UWB stations we make use of this information in orderto improve the location provided by mobile networks. Essentially,when performing trilateration using the data offered by LTE,we also include the data of UWB in case that this informationdo not serve to position by itself. In this manner, the coveragearea by at least one UWB station augments and accuracy ofthe system improves in those regions where only LTE previouslyprovided location.
