Wireless networking technologies allow computing devices to move while keeping them online, but the device mobility poses considerable technical challenges. Network designers, on the one hand, consider mobility to be harmful because it leads to dynamic and ...
During the last decade, the number of wireless devices like digital organizers, mobile phones and laptop computers has drastically increased. At the same time, several technologies, like Bluetooth, GPRS, or WiFi have become mature and offer a high-performa ...
We propose a single source reliable broadcasting algorithm for linear grid-based networks where a message is guaranteed to be delivered to all the nodes of the network. The nodes are mobile and can move from one grid point to another. The solution does not ...
Wireless location refers to the geographic coordinates of a mobile subscriber in cellular or wireless local area network (WLAN) environments. Wireless location finding has emerged as an essential public safety feature of cellular systems in response to an ...
Centimeter-level real-time kinematic (RTK) positioning is one of the most widely used surveying techniques. Broadcasting GPS-RTK corrections via Internet-based services has become a new communication procedure to achieve “instantaneous” positioning with hi ...
This paper reports on results from a field experiment using a pervasive game that aims at eliciting the influence of location-awareness of others in a mobile and collaborative task. We present the environment as well as first results concerning how differe ...
We explore the problem of smallscale multirobot formation control using only an unsophisticated onboard relative positioning module. The robotic setup and module are implemented and tested in a realistic virtual simulator, using standard formation types an ...
Location-awareness is crucial to many applications of sensor networks. Existing location surveying approaches either rely on an inflexible infrastructure or suffer from high computation and communication load. In this paper, we present Non-intEractive lOca ...
So far, the problem of positioning in wireless networks has been mainly studied in a non-adversarial setting. In this work, we analyze the resistance of positioning techniques to position and distance spoofing attacks. We propose a mechanism for secure pos ...
Wireless communication today supports heterogeneous wireless devices with a number of different wireless network interfaces (WNICs). A large fraction of communication is infrastructure based, so the wireless access points and hotspot servers have become mo ...
