Indoor localization without infrastructure using the acoustic background spectrum
We introduce a new technique for determining a mobile phone’s indoor location even when Wi-Fi infrastructure is unavailable or sparse. Our technique is based on a new ambient so...

Inverting sensor networks and actuating the environment for spatio-temporal access control
Wireless sensor networks are typically deployed to measure the information field, rather than create an information field. However, by utilizing the radio on sensor nodes, it is...

Strong barrier coverage of wireless sensor networks
Constructing sensor barriers to detect intruders crossing a randomly-deployed sensor network is an important problem. Early results have shown how to construct sensor barriers to ...

Dynamic Clustering for Acoustic Target Tracking in Wireless Sensor Networks
Abstract—In the paper, we devise and evaluate a fully decentralized, light-weight, dynamic clustering algorithm for target tracking. Instead of assuming the same role for all the...
