Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) We propose a simple range-free localization for binary sensors randomly deployed in a field of watch, and apply it to the shape estimation of target objects moving across the field. The proposed method uses a landmark, which wanders around the filed while measuring its exact position. Binary sensors periodically send the binary information to the server to indicate whether or not they detect the target object. The server estimates the location of each individual sensor by taking the average of the landmark locations, on which it is detected by the corresponding sensor. The proposed shape estimation uses the average and variance of the distance between two sensors, which simultaneously detect the target object. We theoretically analyze the accuracy of the proposed method and numerically verify it through simulations.
