In this paper, we present a technique to recognize the position of sensors on the human
body. Automatic on-body device localization ensures correctness and accuracy of …

Localization of mobile devices underground is extremely challenging, with radio
propagation (such as used in GPS and VHF) severely attenuated by soil and moisture …

Currently, there is no existing method for automatically tracking the location of burrowing
animals when they are underground, consequently zoologists only have a partial view of …

We explore the advantages of using Erasure Codes (ECs) in a very challenging sensor
networking scenario, namely, monitoring and tracking bats in the wild. The mobile bat nodes …

Accelerometer and inclinometer are inertial sensors capable of measuring corresponding
magnitude of Earth gravitational field along the direction of each axis. By means of rotation …

We study the potential of exploiting receive diversity in a distributed wireless sensor network
(WSN). In contrast to other approaches, we fully rely on diversity combining on signal level …

Rat-robots show great potential for rescue and search applications in very tight spaces
because of their excellent mobility and environmental adaptability. However, owing to the …

Seafloor vertical deformation is important during the methane hydrate production. A
monitoring system for seafloor vertical deformation based on Micro Electro Mechanical …

Localization and tracking of small animals in the wild using sensor networks require nodes
with ultra-low power consumption, which are particularly challenging to design. Here, we …

In this work, we present RatMote, a new wireless sensor node for subterranean animal
habitat monitoring. RatMote has been developed for project RatPack, which aims at creating …
