This paper presents a joint synchronization and localization algorithm based on the time-
difference-of-arrival (TDOA) for asynchronous Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), where the …

In this paper, a modified Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm (MLMA) is proposed to localize the
'point of burst'of an explosive sound source over the range of (0.5–2500) m. The objective …

The motion of sensors during the measurement period, if not accounted for, can degrade
significantly the localization accuracy. This paper investigates the sensor motion effect for …

Time Difference of Arrival (TDOA) positioning has been an active research over the years
due to its rich amounts of applications. Improving the quality of the TDOA measurements …

How do we self-localize large teams of underwater nodes using only noisy range
measurements? How do we do it in a distributed way, and incorporating dynamics into the …

We examine the problem of jointly determining the positions of multiple underwater vehicles
based on a set of pairwise range and bearing measurements taken over time. This extends …

This paper proposes a progressive Isomap algorithm for node localization. The algorithm is
an extension of centralized Isomap and is capable of effectively localizing new nodes …

Complex geographical environment brings tremendous challenges to get information of
localization in underground coal mines. Sequence-based localization is a simple method; …

Autonomous wireless agents are deployed in difficult to approach environments in order to
gather information for example temperature, pressure or pollution distributions. Although the …

How can teams of artificial agents localize and position themselves in GPS-denied
environments? How can each agent determine its position from pairwise ranges, own …
