Description
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
