Localization is a basic and critical requirement for wireless sensor network applications, e.g. target tracking, monitoring and intrusion detection. In the received signal strengt...
— We address the problem of placing a sensor network so as to minimize the uncertainty in estimating the position of targets. The novelty of our formulation is in the sensing mod...
— When a network of robots or static sensors is emplaced in an environment, the spatial relationships between the sensing units must be inferred or computed for most key applicat...
— A mobile robot we have developed is equipped with sensors to measure range to landmarks and can simultaneously localize itself as well as locate the landmarks. This modality is...

This paper is concerned with reducing communication costs when executing distributed user tasks in a sensor network. We take a service-oriented abstraction of sensor networks, whe...
— The paper presents IRIS, an Integrated Routing and Interest dissemination System for wireless sensor networks. The proposed protocols are designed to work under very low duty c...
— In this work, we study the topology enhancement problem of wireless sensor networks. Our research focuses on reducing the path-based vulnerability. The objective is to get as m...
— The path loss exponent (PLE) is a parameter indicating the rate at which the received signal strength (RSS) decreases with distance, and its value depends on the specific prop...
Wireless sensor networks (WSN) are composed of battery-driven communication entities performing multiple, usually different tasks. In order to complete a given task, all sensor no...
—Wireless Sensor Networks provide opportunities even outside their usual application domain of environmental monitoring. In this paper we present a case study on the use of Wirel...
