3D Algorithms To Improve Deployment Of Wireless Location Systems Efficiency
نویسندگان
چکیده
Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS) have become very popular in recent years. These systems provide a contemporary layer of automation named automatic object location detection. Location measurements involve the transmission and reception of signals between hardware components of a system. A RTLS consists of at least two separate hardware components: a signal transmitter and a measuring unit. The positioning of the components in the monitored area is of great importance (regarding both location accuracy and resources required). This work presents the development of 3D software that can simulate the installation of a RTLS network in a virtual representation of the real world, helping in the decision making for the setup of such a network. The software utilizes a modified site survey algorithm, specifically developed to suit the needs of RTLS. Furthermore, it is capable of identifying the distance between two wireless nodes and the type and size of obstacles between them (walls, furniture, reflecting surfaces) calculating their effect on the formation of the network.

Communication security of wireless sensor networks is achieved using cryptographic keys assigned to the nodes. Due to resource constraints in such networks, random key pre-distribution schemes are of high interest. Although in most of these schemes no location information is considered, there are scenarios that location information can be obtained by nodes after their deployment. In this paper,...
