  • When a patient did emergency call, only the name of the patient and a hospital room are shown to nurse's terminal. So, it's so difficult that a nurse looks for the location of the patient. Therefore we have much time about search patient when a patient does emergency call at the other places of their hospital room. This paper proposed optimal repeater's location using SOFM and patient's location estimation using repeater's location information and RSSI database. We performed simulations on searching patient's location using location estimation algorithm.

  • This paper proposes a wireless LAN topology configuration method for enhancing indoor location-awareness and improving network performance simultaneously. We first develop four objective functions that yield objective goals significant to the optimal design of a wireless LAN topology in terms of location-awareness accuracy and network performance factors. Then, we develop metaheuristic algorithms such as simulated annealing, tabu search, and genetic algorithm that examine the proposed objective functions and generate a near-optimal solution for a given objective function. Finally, four objective functions and metaheuristic algorithms developed in this paper are exploited to evaluate and measure the performance of the proposed wireless LAN topology configuration method.

  • Recently, the use of wireless fan is increased by the development of wireless communication and convenience. Moreover, it makes an issue of security threat and vulnerability of wireless tan. Therefore, the IEEE established new standard such as 802.11i in 802.11 to supplement security vulnerability of wireless tan. But the security threat that does not solve, still remains. In this paper, we proposed that the location detection algorithm, that is used Kalman-Filter, Lateration and RSSI, and the mechanism that detects security status of AP and unauthorized AP by using beacon-frame of AP in building. Finally, we confirmed performance of proposed algorithm is good in comparison of established algorithm.

  • In this paper, the iteration localization algorithm that NLOS signal is iteratively removed to get the exact location in the wireless sensor network is proposed. To evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm, TDOA location estimation method is used, and readers are located on every 150m intervals with rectangular shape in $300m{\times}300m$ searching field. In that searching field, the error distance is analyzed according to increasing the number of iteration, sub-blink and the estimated sensor node locations which are located in the iteration range. From simulation results, the error distance is diminished according to increasing the number of the sub-blink and iteration with the proposed location estimation algorithm in NLOS environment. Therefore, to get more accurate location information in wireless sensor network in NLOS environments, the proposed location estimation algorithm removing NLOS signal effects through iteration scheme is suitable.

  • This paper describes a system for location tracking wireless sensor nodes in an indoor environment. The sensor reading used for the location estimation is the received signal strength indication (RSSI) as given by an RF interface. By tagging users with a mobile node and deploying a number of reference nodes at fixed position in the room, the received signal strength indicator can be used to determine the position of tagged users. The system combines Euclidean distance technique with signal strength obtained by measurement driven log-normal path loss model of 2.4 GHz wireless channel. The experimental results demonstrated the ability of this system to estimate the location with a error less than 1.3m.

  • In wireless environment such as wireless LAN, proper location of wireless LAN AP allows us to take an effective coverage to provide good wireless communication service. To simulate wireless environment, FDTD formulation is introduced and Gaussian pulse injection in grid space is considered to be replaced wireless LAN AP. So structural effect corresponding to location of arbitrary obstacle must be considered, and its received gain is estimated. An obstacle in scattering field should be modeled to be conductor and concrete wall and its diffraction effect for some cross wall is evaluated between transmitter and receiver point.

  • An important issue in the design of future Personal Communication Service (PCS) networks is the efficient management of location information. In this paper, we propose an adaptive distributed dynamic location management algorithm that stores the position of the mobile terminal in k of the n location information databases (LIDs). The proposed algorithm chooses adaptively k. replication factor according to both the space locality of LIDs in wireless mobile networks and the location query popularity to local mobile terminal from remote mobile terminals. The performance of proposed algorithm is evaluated by both an analytical model and a simulation. Based on the results of performance evaluation, we know that the performance of the proposed algorithm is better than that of Krishnamurthi's algorithm regardless of call-mobility ratio.

  • The spread of wireless Internet technology development and applications with location information in the form of location-based services are more varied. In particular, where you recognize the location of objects such as people and things, and to provide valuable services based on ubiquitous, location-based services (Ubiquitous Location Based Services: u-LBS) is emerging as an important service. In this paper precise location data to the car crash through the location and offers related service system. In this paper the precise location tracking proposed by the concept of the Rail, road, to extract the location Data Matching Data and the current location is obtained. System used in GPS Packet and information about the location of the vehicle collision and the collision time, the vehicle consists of NodeID is about. Using these data, a packet is to be created when the conflict between vehicles in the vehicle will be sent to Gateway. Gateway to the packets that were sent from the Server to determine whether the conflict is that in an emergency situation, Emergency Center for location information and let me know whether or not the conflict will be measured. Also, for those on the outside of an emergency such as a family related to the wireless terminal wireless (PDA, cell phone) is to let me know. Server get into the conflict that was configured to store information on the Database. Additionally, the proposed u-LBS system to verify the validity of the experiment was performed.

  • Because of unreplenishable power resources, reducing node energy consumption to extend network lifetime is an important requirement in wireless sensor networks. In addition both path length and path cost are important metrics affecting sensor lifetime. We propose a dynamic clustering scheme based on location in wireless sensor networks. Our scheme can localize the effects of route failures, reduce control traffic overhead, and thus enhance the reachability to the destination. We have evaluated the performance of our clustering scheme through a simulation and analysis. We provide simulation results showing a good performance in terms of approximation ratios.
