Distributed Generation of a Family of Connected Dominating Sets in Wireless Sensor Networks
We study the problem of computing a family of connected dominating sets in wireless sensor networks (WSN) in a distributed manner. A WSN is modelled as a unit disk graph G = (V, E)...

Iterative calibration method for inertial and magnetic sensors
Abstract— We address the problem of three-axis sensor calibration. Our focus is on magnetometers. Usual errors (misalignment, non-orthogonality, scale factors, biases) are accoun...
