But the quality of the GPS signal degrades in an indoor location and hence GPS cannot be used for indoor localization. Cricket motes are location-aware system that can provide localization service to its users in an indoor location. Cricket motes apply the acoustic ranging technique to find distance between two points. But before a user can use this localization system, assigning coordinate system to the motes requires manual assistance. This project presents a novel algorithm for self-calibration of the cricket motes to a coordinate system when positioned around a rectangular field. The initial localization of the cricket motes is performed using the trilateration technique so as to get a rough estimate of their position. Then, the logic of Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) algorithm is applied to obtain positioning accuracy within 5 cm. 2011-07-18 English text Wright State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=wright1309542655 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=wright1309542655 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
