Fusion-Based Sensor Selection for Optimal State Estimation and Minimum Cost
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper proposes a heuristic method for the sensor selection problem that uses a state vector fusion approach as a data fusion method. We explain the heuristic to estimate a stationary target position. Given a first sensor with specified accuracy and by using genetic algorithm, the heuristic selects second sensor such that the fusion of two sensor measurements would yield an optimal estimation in a target localization scenario. Optimality in our method means that a trade-off between estimation error and cost of sensory system should be created. The heuristic also investigates the importance of proportion between the range and bearing measurement accuracy of selected sensor. Monte Carlo Simulation results for a target position estimation scenario showed that the error in heuristic is less than the estimate error where sensors are used alone for estimation, while considering the trade-off between cost and accuracy. Index Terms — data fusion, sensor selection, multi-objective optimization, genetic algorithm.

متن کاملA New Method for Multisensor Data Fusion Based on Wavelet Transform in a Chemical Plant
This paper presents a new multi-sensor data fusion method based on the combination of wavelet transform (WT) and extended Kalman filter (EKF). Input data are first filtered by a wavelet transform via Daubechies wavelet “db4” functions and the filtered data are then fused based on variance weights in terms of minimum mean square error. The fused data are finally treated by extended Kalman filter...

متن کاملAnycast Routing in Wireless Sensor Networks
Anycast is a mechanism that it sends the data groups to the nearest interface during which they have the same anycast address. Ant colony system, a population-based algorithm, provides natural and intrinsic way of exploration of search space in optimization settings in determining optimal anycast tree. In this paper, we propose a sink selection heuristic algorithm called Minimum Ant-based Data ...
