چکیده

Spatial localization is an important building block for wireless sensor networks. Beacons that know their position and serve as reference are a vital aspect of nearly every localization system. In this paper, we look at dense beacon placement, which has a significant impact on the overall quality of localization. Based on the premise that uniformly dense beacon placement is not practical, we motivate the need for adaptive beacon activation in dense sensor networks. In this paper, we consider STROBE, a previously proposed beacon activation algorithm, and modify it to be energy aware. Our simulation results show that the addition of residual energy as a parameter in the STROBE algorithm results in a longer network lifetime and better coverage on the periphery of the network.

Adaptive Beacon Placement

Beacon placement strongly affects the quality of spatial localization, a critical service for context-aware applications in wireless sensor networks; yet this aspect of localization has received little attention. Fixed beacon placement approaches such as uniform and very dense placement are not always viable and will be inadequate in very noisy environments in which sensor networks may be expec...

A multi-hop PSO based localization algorithm for wireless sensor networks

A sensor network consists of a large number of sensor nodes that are distributed in a large geographic environment to collect data. Localization is one of the key issues in wireless sensor network researches because it is important to determine the location of an event. On the other side, finding the location of a wireless sensor node by the Global Positioning System (GPS) is not appropriate du...
