Abstract

Nowadays location systems are used within a large variety of applications. The application of these systems within indoor environments is already provided by several solutions. However, the need for high accuracy within these environments to pursue such a purpose implies the use of specific infrastructures designed towards it. Our project tries to meet the requirements for a simple, low-cost, and scalable location system through different approaches. The main idea of it is to re-construct topological maps of indoor spaces through location estimation, and to serve as a means of reducing the precision requirements other systems may have to develop a scalable and highly applicable solution.

Cooperative Target Tracking and Signal Propagation Learning Using Mobile Sensors

Target tracking refers to positioning mobile objects over time. The targets may be hospital patients, park visitors, mall shoppers, warehouse assets, etc. We consider a novel cooperative system to track targets, where a target carries low-cost RF tag ...
A Polygonal Method for Ranging-Based Localization in an Indoor Wireless Sensor Network

In this paper, we propose an indoor localization method in a wireless sensor network based on IEEE 802.15.4 specification. The proposed method follows a ranging-based approach using not only the measurements of received signal strength (RSS) but also ...
