摘要： A method and system is provided for determining a location for each of a plurality of units, which are sub-divided into more than one sub-net groupings, that each include two or more units. Within each sub-net grouping, measured range information between units within the sub-nets and one or more reference units is gathered in at least a selected one of the units. The selected one of the units then estimates a location for each of the units, which minimizes any error in the measured ranges between the units in each of the corresponding sub-nets.

摘要： A method and system is provided for determining a location for each of a plurality of units, which is selected from one of multiple sets of locations, which are each estimated based upon different initial location estimates. The selected set of locations includes the set which has the minimum error value, where the error value is based on the aggregate of the differences between the range determined from the estimated locations and the measured range. By using different sets of initial location estimates, there is a greater chance that at least one of the sets of initial location estimates will avoid any local minimums and produce a more accurate estimate of unit locations.

摘要： A location technique is utilized where channel-model parameters are originally estimated prior to location taking place. Location then takes place using a first set of known-located nodes, and the channel-model parameters are updated based on the distances resulting from the location estimate. Once the channel-model parameters have been updated, location again takes place using a second set of known-located nodes, node distances are calculated based on the produced locations and the channel-model parameters are again updated. This process continues until no significant change is observed between the previous and the newly estimated location, or until a maximum number of iterations is reached.

摘要： A method and location determination module is provided for determining a location of one of a plurality of units using neighbor lists. Each unit is communicatively coupled to at least some of the other plurality of units, where at least some of the plurality of units are reference units, whose locations are known. The units communicate with other nearby units within communication range, to establish neighbor lists. A unit to be located then identifies an aggregate value corresponding to the number of occurrences of the reference units in the neighbor list of the unit to be located and the neighbor lists of each of a group of associated units. The location of the unit to be located is then determined, based upon the known locations of the reference units and the number of identified occurrences of the reference units in the corresponding neighbor lists.

摘要： A method and apparatus for determining the location of a node within a communication system is provided herein. During operation, reference nodes (105) having known locations are utilized to locate “blind” nodes (104) whose location is to be determined. More particularly, a blind node (104) wishing to determine its location will measure a plurality of path losses between itself and a plurality of reference nodes (105). These reference nodes' locations will then be mathematically weighted by the path loss between these reference nodes (105) and the blind node (104). The location of the blind node (104) is a sum of the mathematically weighted reference nodes' locations.

摘要： A method and apparatus for determining the path loss model of an object within a wireless communication system is provided herein. During operation, a path loss model for a node is generated based on path loss values and corresponding numbers of neighbors of the said node. The path loss model is used to determine a relationship between path loss and distance. With this relationship established, distances to known-located nodes may be obtained by obtaining a path loss to the known-located node. From these distances, a node can then be located.

摘要： A method for locating nodes in a multi-hop sensor network forms a rigid body (RB1, RB2, RB3) and, from the nodes, utilizes the rigid body to decide if a node is locatable. The method obtains a reduced order model (ROM) of the network by categorizing all of the nodes by location status, grouping them based upon the categorizations, and defining and identifying a rigid body from a group. The method further simplifies determinability of node location by forming the rigid body from the nodes based upon the categorized location status. To locate the nodes, the nodes are separated from one another into subsets dependent upon characteristics (100). Then, groups are formed from one subset (200) and the rigid body is formed from a group (300). The ROM is formed from the rigid body (400) and a location capability of the rigid body is evaluated based upon the ROM (500).

摘要： A method and system is provided for determining a location for each of a plurality of units, which are sub-divided into more than one sub-net groupings, that each include two or more units. Within each sub-net grouping, measured range information between units within the sub-nets and one or more reference units is gathered in at least a selected one of the units. The selected one of the units then estimates a location for each of the units, which minimizes any error in the measured ranges between the units in each of the corresponding sub-nets.
