چکیده

In this paper we introduce and describe a radio frequency-based system for location identification and tracking. The basic design of the system consists of transmitters in the environment, transceivers on the person or object for which location information is desired, and a receiver in the environment. Each of these three pieces of hardware and their associated software are discussed in this paper. We also talk about system design considerations, privacy concerns, and current and future applications of the system.

Improvement of perturb and observe method for maximum power point tracking in wind energy conversion system using fuzzy controller

One of the main problems in wind energy conversion system (WECS) is how to achieve maxim‌u‌m output power in different wind speeds. Maximum methods for maximum power point tracking in wind energy conversion syst‌e‌ms require the knowledge of system characteristics and mechanic sensors. So, using these methods practically will follow with high price and an abundant difficulties. In this pape...

Target Tracking with Unknown Maneuvers Using Adaptive Parameter Estimation in Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract- Tracking a target which is sensed by a collection of randomly deployed, limited-capacity, and short-ranged sensors is a tricky problem and, yet applicable to the empirical world. In this paper, this challenge has been addressed a by introducing a nested algorithm to track a maneuvering target entering the sensor field. In the proposed nested algorithm, different modules are to fulfill...

A Real-time Motion Tracking Wireless System for Upper Limb Exosuit Based on Inertial Measurement Units and Flex Sensors (TECHNICAL NOTE)

This paper puts forward a real-time angular tracking (motion capture) system for a low cost upper limb exosuit based on sensor fusion; which is integrated by an elastic sleeve-mitten, two inertial measurement units (IMU), two flex sensors and a wireless communication system. The device can accurately detect the angular position of the shoulder (flexion-extension, abduction-adduction and interna...

Mathematical Analysis of Optimal Tracking Interval Management for Power Efficient Target Tracking Wireless Sensor Networks

In this paper, we study the problem of power efficient tracking interval management for distributed target tracking wireless sensor networks (WSNs). We first analyze the performance of a distributed target tracking network with one moving object, using a quantitative mathematical analysis. We show that previously proposed algorithms are efficient only for constant average velocity objects howev...
