| contents | Pervasive localization is essential for continuous tracking applications, yet existing solutions face challenges in balancing power consumption and accuracy. GPS, while precise, is impractical for continuous tracking of micro-assets due to high power requirements. Recent advances in non-linear compressed spectrum sensing offer low-power alternatives, but existing implementations achieve only coarse positioning through Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) measurements. We present DeepSync, a deep learning framework that enables precise localization using compressed cellular spectrum. Our key technical insight lies in formulating sub-sample timing estimation as a template matching problem, solved through a novel architecture combining temporal CNN encoders for multi-frame processing with cross-attention mechanisms. The system processes non-linear inter-modulated spectrum through hierarchical feature extraction, achieving robust performance at SNR levels below -10dB -- a regime where conventional timing estimation fails. By integrating real cellular infrastructure data with physics-based ray-tracing simulations, DeepSync achieves 2.128-meter median accuracy while consuming significantly less power than conventional systems. Real-world evaluations demonstrate 10x improvement over existing compressed spectrum approaches, establishing a new paradigm for ultra-low-power localization. |
