Current trends in mobile services envisage location-based networking as a major strong stimulator for the development of novel solutions for obtaining positioning information in wireless networks. This book discusses mobile positioning solutions applied on top of current wireless communication networks.
This book presents the most recent state of the art in mobilepositioning and tracking techniques. This book discusses mobile positioning solutions applied on topof current wireless communication networks. In addition, theauthors introduce advanced and novel topics such as localization inheterogeneous and cooperative networks, providing a unifiedtreatment of the topic for researchers and industry professionalsalike. Furthermore, the book focuses on application areas ofpositioning, basics of wireless communications for positioning,data fusion and filtering techniques, fundamentals of tracking,error mitigation techniques, positioning systems and technologies,and cooperative mobile positioning systems.
Key Features: * Covers the state of the art of satellite- and terrestrial-basedpositioning systems, spanning from outdoor to indoor environmentsand from wide area networks to short-range networks * Discusses a whole range of topics related to mobilepositioning: from fundamentals of positioning to the description ofa wide spectrum of mobility models for tracking, from details ondata fusion and filtering techniques to error mitigation techniques(including aspects of signal processing) * Provides a solid bridge between research and industryenvisaging a potential implementation of the presentedsolutions * Fills the gap between positioning and communication systems,showing how features of communication systems can be used forpositioning purposes and how the retrieved location information canbe used to enhance the performance of wireless networks. * Includes an accompanying website This book will be a valuable guide for advanced studentsstudying related courses. Professionals and practitioners in thefield of positioning and mobile technologies, and software andservice developers will also find this book of interest.
