Mobile Beacon-based Localization with Motion Compensation for Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks

The aim of this project is to propose an improved mobile-based localization scheme by considering a practical factor (i.e., ship-motion) in Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks (UASNs).
In the last decade, localization techniques associated with UASNs have been widely studied as a method to provide fundamental support for many location-based applications. In particular, mobile beacon-based localization schemes (e.g., usage of ship or AUV) have been proposed as a more promising method than static anchor-based localization in terms of energy efficiency. Further, the mobile beacon-based schemes have similar effects (i.e., accuracy) as the use of many static anchors. TO BE CONT’D
