Locating deployed sensor nodes in wireless networks is a crucial issue for general environmental monitoring applications. Most current positioning technologies use stationary anchors to compute the positions of nodes. However, placing static area not trivial job, especially hazardous environments. Applying mobile anchor good solution. This paper proposes an iterative (ISP) algorithm that uses n...

A common goal of outdoor augmented reality (AR) is the presentation of annotations that are registered to anchor points in the real world. We present an enhanced approach for registering and tracking such anchor points, which is suitable for current generation mobile phones and can also successfully deal with the wide variety of viewing conditions encountered in real life outdoor use. The appro...

Node localization in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is one of the most important primary requisite that needs to be resolved efficiently as it plays a significant role in many applications namely environmental monitoring, routing and target tracking which is location dependent. Localization is defined as finding the physical co-ordinates of a group of sensor nodes. Localization is classified a...

This document specifies a mechanism that enhances Proxy Mobile IPv6 protocol signaling to support the creation of a transient binding cache entry that is used to optimize the performance of dual radio handover, as well as single radio handover. This mechanism is applicable to the mobile node’s inter-MAG (Mobility Access Gateway) handover while using a single interface or different interfaces. T...

Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) is a network based mobility management protocol that enables IP mobility for a host without requiring its participation in any mobility-related signaling. PMIPv6 requires all communications to go through the local mobility anchor. As this can be suboptimal, Localized Routing (LR) allows Mobile Nodes (MNs) attached to the same or different Mobile Access Gateways (MAGs)...

−Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN’s) are achieving swiftly developing focus in current years, and are commonly recognized as an advanced option for nest era wireless networks. Contrasted with regular wireless and mobile networks, eg. Wi-Fi based wireless networks and mobile IP networks, WMN’s have the advantages of low price, easy implementation, self organization and self healing, and being compati...

Localization in wireless sensor networks has been a big challenge for researchers in the past years. Besides physical problems like estimating the distance between two nodes, applicable algorithms are still on the list of open research issues. While single-hop localization with direct connection to fixed anchors is well researched, the localization with fixed anchors over a multihop route is st...

1 Path Planning Algorithm for Mobile AnchorBased Localization in Wireless Sensor Networks Localization is an essential issue in wireless sensor networks because many applications require thesensor nodes to know their locations with a high degree of precision. Various localization methodsbased on mobile anchor nodes have been proposed for assisting the sensor nodes to determine their locations. ...
