This article presents sensor fusion techniques for ultra-wideband-based localization to achieve sufficient accuracy and robustness for the control of vehicles in an industrial environment. We propose two outlier detection methods in combination with an extended Kalman Filter, and present experimental validation where 10 cm accuracy is achieved even in difficult NLOS conditions.
