چکیده

We present a new localization algorithm called Sensor Resetting Localization which is an extension of Monte Carlo Localization. The algorithm adds sensor based resampling to Monte Carlo Localization when the robot is lost. The new algorithm is robust to modelling errors including unmodelled movements and systematic errors. The algorithm can be used in real time on systems with limited computational power. The algorithm has been used successfully on autonomous legged robots in the Sony legged league of the robotic soccer competition RoboCup '99. We present results from the real robots demonstrating the success of the algorithm and results from simulation comparing the algorithm to Monte Carlo Localization.

A New Approach to Self-Localization for Mobile Robots Using Sensor Data Fusion

This paper proposes a new approach for calibration of dead reckoning process. Using the well-known UMBmark (University of Michigan Benchmark) is not sufficient for a desirable calibration of dead reckoning. Besides, existing calibration methods usually require explicit measurement of actual motion of the robot. Some recent methods use the smart encoder trailer or long range finder sensors such ...

Multi-Observation Sensor Resetting Localization with Ambiguous Landmarks

Successful approaches to the robot localization problem include Monte Carlo particle filters, which estimate non-parametric localization belief distributions. However, particle filters fare poorly at determining the robot’s position without a good initial hypothesis. This problem has been addressed for robots that sense visual landmarks with sensor resetting, by performing sensorbased resamplin...

Representing a Model for Improving Connectivity and Power Dissipation in Wireless Networks Using Mobile Sensors

Wireless sensor networks are often located in areas where access to them is difficult or dangerous. Today, in wireless sensor networks, cluster-based routing protocols by dividing sensor nodes into distinct clusters and selecting local head-clusters to combine and send information of each cluster to the base station and balanced energy consumption by network nodes, get the best performance ...
