It is important in the age of the INTERNET and video games to keep students engaged in the classroom. One way of doing this is through the use of games and simulations. TABOO™ is a card game which involves getting players to say a keyword without saying five forbidden words1. This can be adapted for any number of different subjects. In this paper the game was adapted for use in “Detection and Estimation”...
Localization via received signal strength (RSS) is often employed in cases where the received signal is fairly weak, either due to distance or due to deliberate covert operation or interference avoidance. However, most research on source localization via RSS implicitly assumes that the background noise is negligible, and that parameters of the transmitter and environment are known. Many commercial...
Radio tomographic imaging (RTI) has recently been proposed for tracking object location via radio waves without requiring the objects to transmit or receive radio signals. The position is extracted by inferring which voxels are obstructing a subset of radio links in a dense wireless sensor network. This paper proposes a refined model for signal attenuation in RTI based on measured data, which is used...
Received signal strength (RSS) based source localization papers often ignore the practical effects of range limits in the measurements. In many devices, this results in some sensors not reporting beyond some maximum range; and in others, the RSS is still observed but may exhibit a noise floor at large ranges. This paper models these situations and demonstrates their effect on positioning algorithms...
