| Abstract(in English) | In recent years, the depopulation and aging of rural areas has become a significant problem. Trail running has been attracting attention as a way to "revitalize" towns. Due to the difficulty in setting up and guiding the course, however, the cost of operation is a barrier for further popularization. Therefore, a system that automatically tracks runners is expected. Note that existing systems for marathons cannot be used for trail running in mountainous areas. Therefore, by using two communication modes alternatively with LoRa, it is achieved to exchange information through passing communication between runners and transmit through multi-hop communication. In this way, we propose a system that can track runners even when it is difficult to obtain accurate GPS information. Finally, we evaluate the proposed runner tracking system in terms of real-time runner information acquisition and runner tracking performance via simulation experiments. |
