Publisher's Synopsis
INTRODUCTION
Wireless sensor network (WSN) based target tracking has become a major
research field in recent years. The WSN is composed of a large number of tiny, battery-powered
spatially distributed sensor nodes that can communicate and exchange data
with each other. This chapter first explains the fundamentals of wireless sensor
networks, their characteristics, limitations, and applications. Next, the WSN based
Localization and Tracking (L&T) issues and measurement techniques are discussed.
