Localization in underwater sensor networks: survey and challenges
In underwater sensor networks (UWSNs), determining the location of every sensor is important and the process of estimating the location of each node in a sensor network is known a...

Boundary Estimation in Sensor Networks: Theory and Methods
Sensor networks have emerged as a fundamentally new tool for monitoring spatially distributed phenomena. This paper investigates a strategy by which sensor nodes detect and estima...

Aggregate Location Monitoring for Wireless Sensor Networks: A Histogram-Based Approach
Location monitoring systems are used to detect human activities and provide monitoring services, e.g., aggregate queries. In this paper, we consider an aggregate location monitori...

Distributed computation of a sparse cover in sensor networks without location information
— In this paper, we present a distributed algorithm for detecting redundancies in a sensor network with no location information. We demonstrate how, in the absence of localizatio...

On the Limitations of Random Sensor Placement for Distributed Signal Detection
— We consider the design of a sensor network for detecting an emitter who if present is known to be located in an interval but whose exact position is unknown. We seek to minimiz...
