Position Location Techniques and Applications

2009 | Science & Mathematics

This book is the definitive guide to the techniques and applications of position location, covering both terrestrial and satellite systems. It gives all the techniques, theoretical models, and algorithms that engineers need to improve their current location schemes and to develop future location algorithms and systems. Comprehensive coverage is given to system design trade-offs, complexity issues, and the design of efficient positioning algorithms to enable the creation of high-performance location positioning systems. Traditional methods are also reexamined in the context of the challenges posed by reconfigurable and multihop networks. Applications discussed include wireless networks (WiFi, ZigBee, UMTS, and DVB networks), cognitive radio, sensor networks and multihop networks.

Features * Contains a complete guide to models, techniques, and applications of position location * Includes applications to wireless networks, demonstrating the relevance of location positioning to these "hot" areas in research and development * Covers system design trade-offs and the design of efficient positioning algorithms, enabling the creation of future location positioning systems * Provides a theoretical underpinning for understanding current position location algorithms, giving researchers a foundation to develop future algorithms David Munoz is Director and Cesar Vargas is a member of the Center for Electronics and Telecommunications, Tecnologico de Monterrey, Mexico. Frantz Bouchereau is a senior communications software developer at The MathWorks Inc. in Natick, MA. Rogerio Enriquez-Caldera is at Instituto Nacional de Atrofisica, Optica y Electronica (INAOE), Puebla, Mexico.
