Distributed Particle Filter for Target Tracking in Sensor Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we present a distributed particle filter (DPF) for target tracking in a sensor network. The proposed DPF consists of two major steps. First, particle compression based on support vector machine is performed to reduce the cost of transmission among sensors. Second, each sensor fuses the compressed information from its neighboring nodes with use of consensus or gossip algorithm to estimate the target track. Computer simulations are included to verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

One of the most important and typical application of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is target tracking. Although target tracking, can provide benefits for large-scale WSNs and organize them into clusters but tracking a moving target in cluster-based WSNs suffers a boundary problem. The main goal of this paper was to introduce an efficient and novel mobility management protocol namely Target Tr...

In this paper, based on a distributed particle filter, two tracking algorithms are proposed for tracking mobile targets in cluster-based underwater sensor networks (USNs). Both tracking algorithms run local particle filter sequentially at each cluster along target trajectories, but they adopt different methods of selecting measurements from sensor nodes to balance the information contribution a...
