Low-cost Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) location sensing algorithm is practical and crucial for urban infrastructure location. Current RFID location algorithms are based on fixed multiple RFID reader or reference points (reader or tag) with known position, which is cost and difficult to deployment in urban environment. The objective of this study is to develop a low-cost location sensing...

We discuss two approaches to multilateration with a particular focus on numerical aspects for given dataset. More precisely, we calculate the volumetric errors of MCV 754 milling machine from data measured by LaserTRACER and provide criteria showing which method is appropriate solution problem respect measurement In first case, consider cost functions optimisation problem; in second, use extrem...

The digitally reconstructed panoramic out-of-windows view allows for several automation features which are not available within the conventional control tower environment. Besides image processing based automatic movement detection, augmented vision is of particular interest: flight data or realtime aircraft positions obtained from approach radar, via transponder from a multilateration system o...

In this paper, we consider real-time tracking of an Autonomous Guided Vehicle (AGV) in an indoor industrial scenario. An on-board odometer provides information about the dynamic state of the AGV, allowing to predict its pose (position and orientation). At the same time, an external Ultra Wide Band (UWB) wireless network provides the information necessary to compensate the error drift accumulate...

Three-dimensional Under-Water Acoustic Sensor Networks (UWASN) are supposed to be deployed for many applications. However, a protocol for sensors’ self-localization and time-synchronization in UWASN remains a challenge problem. In this paper, we developed a multilateration algorithm which could reliably localize and synchronize underwater sensor networks by acoustic ranging. To our best knowled...
