Self-Organizing Location Estimation Method using Ad-hoc Networks

Several positioning systems to obtain precise location information have been researched. However, they have scalability and flexibility problems because they need completely configured space with a large number of sensors. To avoid the problems, we have proposed a self-organizing location estimation method that uses ad hoc networks and Self- Organizing Maps and needs no prepared space with a large number of sensors. In this paper and our demonstration, the proposed method and its characteristic are presented.
