چکیده

In this paper we propose an approach to improve the object location accuracy and enable better attitude estimation for wireless locating systems. This method combines the position data of multiple tags placed on an object. The algorithm is independent of the technology used to measure the tags position or the methods of pre-processing the data. The algorithm has been tested experimentally with an Ubisense system based on ultra wide band (UWB) communication. It has been demonstrated that the accuracy can be improved by a factor of three down to a couple of centimetres. This improved accuracy allows estimating not only the location but also the attitude of an object.

On Selecting Nodes to Improve Estimated Positions

We consider node localization problems in ad hoc wireless networks in which two types of nodes are considered: nodes with self-locating capability like GPS and nodes with no self-locating capability. Our simple algorithm for improving the position accuracy consists of selecting and processing only the nodes that are likely to enhance the position estimation. We focus our approach on defining a ...

Target detection Bridge Modelling using Point Cloud Segmentation Obtained from Photogrameric UAV

In recent years, great efforts have been made to generate 3D models of urban structures in photogrammetry and remote sensing. 3D reconstruction of the bridge, as one of the most important urban structures in transportation systems, has been neglected because of its geometric and structural complexity. Due to the UAV technology development in spatial data acquisition, in this study, the point cl...
