The problem of target localization involves estimating the position of a target from multiple
noisy sensor measurements. It is well known that the relative sensor-target geometry can …

This paper considers the coupled, bearing-only formation control of three mobile agents
moving in the plane. Each agent has only local inter-agent bearing knowledge and is …

In this paper, we present a location-penalized maximum likelihood (LPML) estimator for
bearing only target localization. We develop a new penalized maximum likelihood cost …

We examine the problem of optimal bearing-only localization of a single target using
synchronous measurements from multiple sensors. We approach the problem by forming …

This paper addresses the problem of optimal acoustic sensor placement for underwater
target localization in 3-D using range measurements only. By adopting an estimation …

Location is one of the basic information required for underwater optical wireless sensor
networks (UOWSNs) for different purposes, such as relating the sensing measurements with …

In this paper, we address the problem of determining the optimal geometric configuration of
an acoustic sensor network that will maximize the angle-related information available for …

The problem of determining the optimal geometric configuration of a sensor network that will
maximize the range-related information available for multiple target positioning is of key …

This paper describes an underwater acoustic sensor network consisting of a heterogeneous
robotic swarm used for long-term monitoring of underwater environments. The swarm …

In this paper we characterize the bounds on localization accuracy in signal strength based
localization. In particular, we provide a novel and rigorous analysis of the relative receiver …
