| contents | This paper considers the problem of downlink localization and user equipments (UEs) tracking with an adaptive procedure for a range of distances. We provide the base station (BS) with two signaling schemes and the UEs with two localization algorithms, assuming far-field (FF) and near-field (NF) conditions, respectively. The proposed schemes employ different beam-sweep patterns, where their compatibility depends on the UE range. Consequently, the FF-NF distinction transcends the traditional definition. Our proposed NF scheme requires beam-focusing on specific spots and more transmissions are required to sweep the area. Instead, the FF scheme assumes distant UEs, and fewer beams are sufficient. We derive a low-complexity algorithm that exploits the FF channel model and highlight its practical benefits and the limitations. Also, we propose an iterative adaptive procedure, where the signaling scheme is depends on the expected accuracy-complexity trade-off. Multiple iterations introduce a tracking application, where the formed trajectory dictates the validity of our assumptions. Moreover, the range from the BS, where the FF signaling scheme can be successfully employed, is investigated. We show that the conventional Fraunhofer distance is not sufficient for adaptive localization and tracking algorithms in the mixed NF and FF environment. |
