Sensor Management with Non-Ideal Sensor Dynamics
نویسنده
چکیده
We describe a theoretically foundational but potentially practical control-theoretic basis for multisensormultitarget sensor management using a comprehensive, intuitive, system-level Bayesian paradigm based on random set theory. We focus on mobile sensors whose states are observed indirectly by internal actuator sensors. We determine optimal controls (future sensor states) using a "probabilistically natural” sensor management objective function, the posterior expected number of targets (PENT). PENT is constructed using a new “maxiPIMS” optimization strategy to hedge against unknowable future observation-collections. It is used in conjunction with the PHD or MHC approximate multitarget filters.

Classification and Comparison of Methods for Discovering Coverage Loss Areas in Wireless Sensor Networks
In recent years, wireless sensor networks data is taken into consideration as an ideal source, in terms of speed, accuracy and cost, in order to study the Earth's surface. One of the most important challenges in this area, is the signaling network coverage and finding holes. In recent years, wireless sensor networks data is taken into consideration as an ideal source, in terms of speed, accurac...
متن کاملA Fuzzy Based Approach for Rate Control in Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks
Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks (WMSNs) undergo congestion when a link (or a node) becomes overpopulated in terms of incoming packets. In WMSNs this happens especially in upstream nodes where all incoming packets meet and directed to the sink node. Congestion in networks, if not handled properly, might lead to congestion collapse which deteriorates the quality of service (QoS). Therefore, i...

متن کاملPull-in behavior of a bio-mass sensor based on an electrostatically actuated cantilevered CNT with consideration of rippling effect
This paper examines the pull-in behavior of a bio-mass sensor with a cantilevered CNT actuated electrostatically by considering rippling deformation. Although this phenomenon can remarkably change the behavior of CNT, its effect on the performance of a CNT-based mass sensor has not been investigated thus far. This investigation is based on modified Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and rippling effec...
