  • Abstract
    Sensor networks allow monitoring, tracking, and controlling various aspects of the physical world. Any data retrieved or generated is only useful if considered in relation to its time and space coordinates. CSIRO´s ICT Centre is currently developing a platform for distributed ad-hoc sensor networks. This paper describes the evaluation of various cooperative localisation techniques and their suitability for this sensor networks platform. Simulation results comparing different algorithms are presented and discussed.
