Abstract
In the context of positioning an agent with a single-anchor, this contribution focuses on the Fisher information about the position, orientation and clock offset of the agent provided by single-bounce reflections. The availability of prior knowledge of the agent's environment is taken into account via a prior distribution of the position of virtual anchors, and the rank, intensity and direction of provided information is studied. We show that when no prior knowledge is available, single-bounce reflections offer position information in the direction parallel to the reflecting surface, irrespective of the agent's and anchor's locations. We provide a geometrically intuitive explanation of the results and present numerical examples demonstrating their potential implications.
