Procedure_Selection_of_Anchors_based_on_Error_on_Distance

Procedure Min-Max

If there are larger than expected large circles for the used hardware: delete them

Procedure Ignoring_Circles

Delete the typical circles containing at least 5 others if there are no typical circles contained by at least 5 others

If there are typical circles contained by at least five others delete them.

Procedure Maximum_Likelihood

Group the anchors based on distance

Are there small distance circles contained by other small distance circles of other group members?

If yes:

new typical circle radius all members = geometric average of

m measured distances

new_Error_on_Distance = (Error_on_Distance of member)

/sqrt (# remaining typical circles -1)

adapt small and large circles according to

new_Error_on_Distance

continue

If no: continue
