This book was released on 2013 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Location Awareness is one of the challenging issues in wireless sensor network. Location awareness can help to carry target tracking, improved routing efficiency and quality of coverage. Location algorithms are used to identify the exact location from where the sensor reading originates. An effective localization algorithm can then use all the available information from the wireless sensor nodes to infer the position of the individual devices. In this field, accuracy plays an important role. Various Localization algorithms have been proposed and each has its own reason of benefits and limitations. The performance of localization algorithms will depend on critical sensor network parameters, such as the radio range, the density of nodes, and the anchor-to-node ratio. Performance of Centroid, DV-hop algorithm is compared. Distance Based Centroid algorithm is proposed which increases the accuracy in wireless sensor network to solve localization problem.

Download or read book Localization in Wireless Sensor Networks with Inaccurate Range Measurements written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We refer to localization as the problem of estimating the spatial coordinates of wireless nodes in an ad-hoc network. Wireless sensor network is an example of such a network, where localization as a problem has been a challenging topic for several years. The position of sensor nodes can be either manually configured before deployment or a GPS receiver can be built into each of these nodes. The former approach is very tedious and error-prone while the latter is a costly proposition in terms of volume, money and power consumption. In this thesis, we consider the problem of determining the positions of wireless nodes using range measurements from multiple, sparsely located, beacon stations with known locations. Clusters of unknown nodes collaborate among themselves in estimating their positions with the help of beacon stations. The major problem is overcoming range measurement inaccuracies. We propose a simple position estimation algorithm that features robustness with respect to range measurement inaccuracies, has low complexity and distributed implementation using only local information. We analyze the performance of the algorithm based on rigorous simulation and theory. We then extend the simple algorithm to a probabilistic algorithm that overcomes some of the drawbacks present in the simple algorithm. The algorithm was designed and implemented in a wireless test-bed consisting of IEEE 802.11 based iPAQs to study its performance. Most of the current localization systems are based on multiple beacons assisting unknown nodes. In an attempt to eliminate some of the drawbacks present in such systems, we also propose and study a single mobile beacon based localization method where a mobile beacon assists unknown nodes in estimating their positions. An implementation of this method in a wireless testbed was used to evaluate the performance.
