Low-Cost Ultrasonic Fusion Sensor For Angular Position
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper describes a low-cost ultrasonic fusion system for angular position. It makes use of two omnidirectional microphones together with one ultrasonic transmitter. The system enables the determination of the transmitter with respect to the two omni-directional microphones. The technique used for the estimation of the incident angle è is the sum-and-difference monopulse method.

Uncertainty Measurement for Ultrasonic Sensor Fusion Using Generalized Aggregated Uncertainty Measure 1
In this paper, target differentiation based on pattern of data which are obtained by a set of two ultrasonic sensors is considered. A neural network based target classifier is applied to these data to categorize the data of each sensor. Then the results are fused together by Dempster–Shafer theory (DST) and Dezert–Smarandache theory (DSmT) to make final decision. The Generalized Aggregated Unce...
