WSN-based solutions for security and surveillance

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are composed of autonomous sensor nodes that cooperate among themselves to monitor scenarios in environmental, industrial, civilian and military applications. The wide applicability of such systems stimulates the …

Real-time indoor localization and tracking of passive targets by means of wireless sensor networks

In this paper, an innovative approach for the localization and tracking of a passive target in an indoor non-infrastructured environment has been presented. The proposed strategy is based on a LBE approach in order to define at each time step a map …

On the integration of smart antennas in Wireless Sensor Networks

This paper presents a preliminary assessment of the potentialities of the exploitation of smart antennas in WSNs. The more trivial benefits coming from such an integration are: (a) an efficient spatial management of the radiated energy and (b) an …
