Wireless Sensor Network Localization Based on Static Anchor Node
Abstract: Anchor-based localization is a crucial challenge in wireless sensor networks (WSNs), aiming to determine the positions of all sensors by leveraging a limited number of anchor nodes whose locations are known. In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm for anchor-based localization in a static network, which improves the localization accuracy while reducing the computational complexity compared to existing methods. Our algorithm uses a range-based approach to estimate the distances …

Localization Based Beamforming Approach to Audio Source Separation from Binaural Mixtures
Abstract: This paper presents an approach of localization on the basis of audio source separation from binaural mixtures with adaptive beamforming. A new source localization technique is proposed to spatially localize the sources with two degrees of freedom (azimuth and elevation). We used a head related transfer function to synthesize the binaural mixture that introduces the interaural differences to the source signals. The interaural cues are technically employed to estimate the …
