Abstract

Object localization defines an important application for wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we present a hybrid of dual-modal mobile localization system to support the object tracking in indoor environment. In order to decrease the system cost and simplify the sensor deployment, we implement the localization by the received radio signal strength approach and the unscented Kalman filter (SPKF) algorithm in active and passive dual-modal architecture. We realize the system by employing the wireless sensor network and the LAN medium Zigbee/802.15.4. Experimental results demonstrate that the hybrid mobile localization system can significantly improve the localization accuracy and robustness, and reduce the cost of communication among sensor nodes while mobile user is moving in the indoor environments.
