Existing methods to measure are based on ToA (Timer of Arrival), RSS (Received Signal Strength), AoA(Angle of Arrival) and other methods. In this paper, we propose a compensation of ToA and RSS methods to measure more precisely the distance of nodes. The comparison experiments with the traditional ToA method show that the average error value of proposed method is reduced 30%. We believe that this proposal can improve location estimation of sensor nodes in wireless sensor networks.

In this paper, location recognition algorithm is developed to improve the accuracy using improve Trilateration. The location recognition algorithm is first calculate the location refer to the measured signal power. Error can be occurred when measure distance with arranged node in specific location. If the distance data is received from node (receiver, coordinator), Node selected for location calculation is defined through section. If the distance data is received from node (receiver, coordinator), Node selected for location calculation is defined through section. Second, we apply algorithm of section filtering. If there are 4 sections in node, we consider 1 section to 6 location recognition coordinates. A special characteristic drawback of RF is that the actual distance is actually farther than the calculated received distance data. This is error is incurred when the signal strength increases. We reduce the location recognition error by applying an improved algorithm as secondary after filtering primary through section filtering.

Routing technique of wireless sensor network that is presented to improve effectiveness of consumption in energy at the previous study is existing in various ways, however for routing, its own location data and nodes' location data close to with 1-hop distance should be kept. And it uses multi-hop transmission method that transmits data to BS node via several nodes. This technique makes electronic consumption of sensor node and entire network's energy consumption so that it makes effective energy management problem. Therefore, this paper suggests location based 1-hop routing technique of BS node that satisfies distance $d{\pm}{\alpha}$ with source node using RSSI and radio wave range of sensor node.

In geographic routing for wireless sensor networks, sources need the location of sinks destined for delivering their data packets. Most of the existing geographic routing protocols merely assume that the sources can get the locations of sinks by some location service. How source nodes find out the location of sinks is not easy. In this paper, we propose a sink location dissemination scheme in geographic routing for wireless sensor networks. In this scheme, a source node and a sink node send sink location announcement and query messages along two paths respectively by geographic routing. The node located on the crossing point of the two paths informs the source about the sink location. Then the source can send data packet to the sink by geographic routing. How to guarantee that these two paths have at least one crossing point in any irregular profile of sensor network is the challenge of this paper Simulation results show that our protocol is significantly superior to other protocols in terms of energy consumption and control overhead.

전장에서 임무 수행중인 병력이나 탱크 등을 지원하거나 보호 동물의 활동을 모니터링 하는 센서 네트워크에서는 전송 정보뿐만 아니라 그러한 대상들의 위치를 악의적 추적자로부터 보호할 수 있어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 활동 소오스 노드처럼 메시지 전송은 진행하고 있지 않지만 위치가 보호되어야 할 대상과 근접한 휴면(dormant) 소오스 노드들을 고려한 소오스 위치 보호 라우팅 기법 GSLP(GPSR-based Source-Location Privacy)를 제안한다. GSLP는 알고리즘의 간결성과 신장성(scalability)이 뛰어난 GPSR(greedy perimeter stateless routing)을 확장하여 메시지 전달 노드를 선정할 때 일정 확률로 임의의 이웃 노드를 선택하는 한편, perimeter 라우팅을 적용하여 소오스 노드들을 우회하도록 하여 위치를 보호하도록 하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과, 기존의 대표적인 소오스 위치 보호 라우팅 프로토콜인 PR-SP(Phantom Routing-Single Path)에 비해 GSLP는 휴면 소오스 노드들의 수에 거의 관계없이 높은 안전 기간(전송 메시지 수)을 일정하게 제공하면서도 전달 지연(경로의 평균 홉(hop) 수)은 도착지와의 최단 홉 수의 약 두 배 이내에 머물러 대규모 센서 네트워크에서의 소오스의 위치를 보호하기 위한 방안으로 적합한 것으로 평가되었다.

Localization in wireless sensor networks is essential to important network functions such as event detection, geographic routing, and information tracking. Localization is to determine the locations of nodes when node connectivities are given. In this paper, centroid approach known as a distributed algorithm is extended to a centralized algorithm. The centralized algorithm has the advantage of simplicity. but does not have the disadvantage that each unknown node should be in transmission ranges of three fixed nodes at least. The algorithm shows that localization can be formulated to a linear system of equations. We mathematically show that the linear system have a unique solution. The unique solution indicates the locations of unknown nodes are capable of being uniquely determined.

위치 인지(localization)는 유비쿼터스 응용의 중요 기술로서 사용자 및 센서 노드 주변의 환경 상태와 같은 정보를 지능적으로 판단하는 상황 인지(context awareness)와 더불어 실재 지리적 위치를 인지(location awareness)할 수 있는 지능화된 서비스를 말한다. 기존의 센서 네트워크를 이용한 위치 인지 기술들은 실내(Indoor) 공간에서 미리 설치된 센서 노드블을 기반으로 능동형 혹은 수동형 방식으로 움직이는 노드의 위치를 측정 하는 인프라스트럭척 기반의 기술 이었다. 그러나 이러한 방식은 위치 인지를 위해 미리 특정 노드 들을 설치해야 하는 근본적인 문제점이 있어서, 군사 작전이나 위급 상황과 같은 환경에서도 강건하게(robust) 사용하기 위해서는 새로운 구조가 필요로 하다. 본 논문에서는 인프라스트럭쳐 기반이 없는 환경에서도 센서 네트워크를 이용해서 강건하게 위치 인식을 할 수 있는 하이브리드(hybrid) 알고리즘 및 시스템을 제안하였다.

Location tracking system represents position by searching objects and humans. In this paper I would like to write about RF chip support Zigbee which is called CC2420. In simulated network circumstance, we can get the information about mobile-node by sending it to sink-node. Position finding is in error by 3m at outdoor environment. The error scale is acceptable within easy range of naked eyes. It can be overcome by using GPS information and Google maps with the wireless networking background.

MANET is a network composed itself because mobile nodes are connected wirelessly. It has been applied to various fields for group communication. However, the dynamic topology by the movement of the nodes causes routing failure frequently because it is difficult to maintain the position information of the nodes participating in the group communication. Also, it has a problem that network performance is decreased due to high overhead for managing information of member nodes. In this paper, we propose a multicast technique using location-based 2-tier virtual group that is flexible and reliable in management of member nodes. The network is composed of cellular zones and the virtual group is constructed using the location information of the nodes in the proposed technique. The virtual group management node is selected to minimize the overhead of location information management for member nodes in the virtual group. In order to improve the reliability for management of member nodes and multicast data transmission, it excludes the gateway node with low transfer rate when setting the route after the packet transmission rate of the member nodes is measured. The excellent performance of the proposed technique can be confirmed through comparative experiments with AMroute method and PAST-DM method.

이동 애드 혹 네트워크(MANET)는 지리적, 환경적인 요인으로 기존의 네트워크를 설치할 수 없는 산악과 같은 고립된 지역에 설치할 수 있는 이동 노드들로 구성된 네트워크이다. 또한 인포스테이션은 전송지연에 민감하지 않는 정보들을 적은 비용으로 효율적으로 전송할 수 있는 시스템이다. 본 논문에서는 등산객이 무선 이동 노드를 휴대함으로서 이동 애드 혹 네트워크를 구성하고, 또한 인포스테이션이 결합된 등산객 조난 구조 시스템을 제안한다. 등산객은 이동 중에 만나는 다른 등산객과 위치정보를 공유하고, 이를 인포스테이션에 전송함으로써 다른 노드들의 위치 추적을 가능하게 한다. 이 시스템은 노드들간의 연결이 지속적이지 않은, 노드의 이동성을 통한 간헐적인 네트워크를 구성하게 된다. 따라서 시스템 구축비용이 적게 들고, 또한 인포스테이션을 통해 노드에 저장되어 있는 위치정보를 전송함으로서 필요한 메모리 용량을 감소시키는 효과도 있다. 그러므로 제안된 시스템을 활용한다면, 조난된 등산객의 위치를 신속히 파악할 수 있어, 효율적인 구조 활동이 가능하게 할 것이다.
