Riassunto

In recent years, advances in signal processing have led to small, low power, inexpensive Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). Target localisation and tracking problems in WSNs have received considerable attention recently, driven by the necessity to achieve higher localisation accuracy, lower cost, and the smallest form factor. This book includes five studies. The first study leads to the design and implementation of a triangulation-based localisation approach using RSS technique for indoor tracking applications. The second study concentrates on investigating a fingerprinting localisation method for indoor tracking applications. The third study focuses on designing and implementing a decentralised tracking approach for tracking multiple mobile targets with low resource requirements. The fourth study focuses on developing and designing a practical ZigBee-based tracking approach. The fifth study outlines designing and implementing an energy-efficient approach for tracking applications.
