Book RF based Indoor Localization in Sensor Networks

Download or read book RF based Indoor Localization in Sensor Networks written by Israat Tanzeena Haque and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book a Received Signal Strength (RSS) based indoor localization system, dubbed LEMON, based on low-cost low-power wireless devices is proposed, which offers better accuracy than the state-of-the-art. A simple RSS scaling trick is then used to further improve the accuracy of LEMON. Furthermore, we study the effect of the node orientation, the number and the arrangement of the infrastructure nodes and the profiled samples, leading us to further insights about what can be effective node placement and profiling. We also consider alternate formulations of the localization problem, as a Bayesian network model as well as formulated in a combinatorial fashion. Then performance of different localization methods is compared and again LEMON ensures better accuracy. An effective room localization algorithm is developed, and both single and multiple channels are used to test its performance. Furthermore, a set of two-step localization algorithms is designed to make the LEMON robust in the presence of noisy RSS and faulty device behavior.

Book RSS AoA based Target Localization and Tracking in Wireless Sensor Networks

Download or read book RSS AoA based Target Localization and Tracking in Wireless Sensor Networks written by Slavisa Tomic and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-09-01 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The desire for precise knowledge about the location of a moving object at any time instant has motivated a great deal of scientific research recently. This is owing to a steady expansion of the range of enabling devices and technologies, as well as the need for seamless solutions for location-based services. Besides localization accuracy, a common requirement for emerging solutions is that they are cost-abstemious, both in terms of the financial and computational cost. Hence, development of localization strategies from already deployed technologies, e.g., from different terrestrial radio frequency sources is of great practical interest. Amongst other, these include localization strategies based on received signal strength (RSS), time of arrival, angle of arrival (AoA) or a combination of them. RSS-AoA-based Target Localization and Tracking in Wireless Sensor Networks presents recent advances in developing algorithms for target localization and tracking, reflecting the state-of-the-art algorithms and research achievements in target localization and tracking based on hybrid (RSS-AoA) measurements.Technical topics discussed in the book include:Centralized RSS-AoA-based Target LocalizationDistributed RSS-AoA-based Target LocalizationRSS-AoA-based Target Tracking via Maximum A Posteriori EstimatorRSS-AoA-based Target Tracking via Kalman FilterRSS-AoA-based via Sensor NavigationThis book is of interest for personnel in telecommunications and surveillance industries, military, smart systems, as well as academic staff and postgraduate/research students in telecommunications, signal processing, and non-smooth and convex optimization.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discusses the need to provide a suitable implementation approach for reducing complex distributed WSN based indoor localisation for real-life applications and also integrate wireless sensor nodes with active RFID transponder to extend their context of use under hardware design constraints. This can be achieved using algorithms and concepts that require fewer computations and assisted with well equipped high performance integrated wireless sensor node device that provides WSN and active RFID capabilities at minimal energy consumption, minimal cost and constrained physical size. The following sub-problems are deduced based the problem statement presented. 1. Sub-Problem 1: Localisation Problem. The growing development of complex indoor localisation systems based on RSS ranging technique prompts the need for providing an approach for the feasible implementation of distributed (decentralised) localisation in WSN for real-life applications. 2. Sub-Problem 2: Active RFID Problem. The integration of active RFID transponder in WSN sensor node platforms prompts the need to design and implement a suitable active communication protocol for transponder identification. 3. Sub-Problem 3: Hardware Design Problem. For a distributive localisation system and the integration of an active RFID transponder, there is a need to design of an energy efficient, low cost and constrained size (credit-card size) integrated hardware node, that can provide WSN applications and assist in implementing localisation seamlessly as well as active RFID transponder capabilities.4. Sub-Problem 4: Gateway and Nodes' Management Application Problem. For a complete WSN that provides intelligent management services to localised nodes, there is a need to create transparent access to all localised nodes on a miniature gateway and provide management services towards IoTs.

Book Indoor Localization in Wireless Sensor Networks

Download or read book Indoor Localization in Wireless Sensor Networks written by and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We considered the issue of indoor localization through the use of wireless sensor networks (WSN). We value not necessary the algorithm that provides the best accuracy but the one that provides a good enough level of accuracy in a simple and efficient manner. In the first part of our work we examined some state-of-the-art localization techniques that are deployable on wireless sensor motes. These techniques are evaluated to a set of criteria that an indoor WSN-based localization application must consider. In our investigation, we considered not only accuracy but many other factors that determine a suitable indoor WSN-based localization system. These factors among other things determine energy efficiency. We broadly separate the criteria list into two categories: efficiency-based and accuracy-based. We discovered that one of the techniques, Ecolocation, evaluates quite well to the efficiency-based criteria, but the evaluation of the accuracy-based criterions is not as promising. However, the inherent simplicity and potential for good performance (based on open environment results) make the algorithm quite attractive. We proceeded to modify the algorithm to improve its accuracy while maintaining its positive qualities. Our Weighted-Constraints algorithm, named as such due to the nature of the modification, performs in terms of average error 13.1% better than the original Ecolocation algorithm in an open environment. Furthermore, our modified algorithm shows it is more robust to noise compared to the original algorithm by perform on average 21.2% better in a noisy environment.
