  2. Overview UNIVERSITY of VIRGINIA ACM SenSys November 2-4, 2005. • Problem Statement • State of Art • Spotlight: THE System • System Implementation • Performance Evaluation • Conclusions

  3. Problem Statement UNIVERSITY of VIRGINIA ACM SenSys November 2-4, 2005. • Localization: • Find the position of sensor nodes • Research Challenge: • Current limitations: • Sophisticated Hardware: timesynch with satellites (GPS) • Short Range, Highly Directional (ultrasound) • Reduced Cost Effectiveness: hefty price for a 1-time event • Large Form Factor (any solution that requires additional hardware) High Location Accuracy ≡ High Cost How to solve this, practically?

  4. State of Art UNIVERSITY of VIRGINIA ACM SenSys November 2-4, 2005. • Many algorithmic solutions, few evaluated in realistic environments • Solutions that use ranging: • MIT Cricket (Priyantha et at., 2000) • UCLA AHLoS (Savvides et al., 2000) • Microsoft RADAR (Bahl et al., 2000) • UWashington SpotON (Hightower et al., 2000) • GPS • Range-free solutions: • USC Centroid (Bulusu et al., 2000) • MIT Amorphous Computing (Nagpal et al., 2003) • Virginia APIT (He et al., 2003) • Rutgers DV-Hop (Niculescu et al., 2003)

  5. System Design UNIVERSITY of VIRGINIA ACM SenSys November 2-4, 2005. • Main Idea: • Generate well-controlled (spatial/temporal) events in the sensor field • A node generates a timestamp when it detects an event • Using the above, obtain spatial information (i.e., location) for a node • Scenario: • Nodes deployed from UAV (Spotlight device) • Nodes self-organize, time-synchronize • The UAV generates light events • Sensor nodes detect the events and report the timestamps • The Spotlight device computes the location of the sensor nodes

  6. System Design UNIVERSITY of VIRGINIA ACM SenSys November 2-4, 2005. • Assumptions: • Line of Sight • Position and orientation for the Spotlight device • GPS/INS (Inertial Navigation System) – cm positioning, arcsec attitude • Map of deployment area: • LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) 10s centimeter accuracy • SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) 10s centimeter accuracy. • Powerful Spotlight device • >1000meters

  7. System Design UNIVERSITY of VIRGINIA ACM SenSys November 2-4, 2005. Generates Events Timestamp Events Report Timestamps Compute Location Report Location Spotlight System Architecture Event Distribution Function: the core of Spotlight We propose 3 Functions

  10. System Implementation UNIVERSITY of VIRGINIA ACM SenSys November 2-4, 2005. • mSpotlight System • Spotlight Device: • Projector • Laptop • Mica2 motes • Short range (10-20m) • Versatile, it generates: • Point Scan • Line Scan • Area Cover • Purpose: Investigate Capabilities

  11. System Implementation UNIVERSITY of VIRGINIA ACM SenSys November 2-4, 2005. • Spotlight System • Spotlight Device: • Telescope Mount • Diode Laser • Laptop • XSM motes • Long range (>1000m) • It generates: • Point Scan • Line Scan (recently) • Demo: later today

  12. Performance Evaluation UNIVERSITY of VIRGINIA ACM SenSys November 2-4, 2005. • Parameters Investigated • EDF (Point & Line Scan, Area Cover) • Event Size • Scanning Speed • Laser Power • Distance: Spotlight Device, Nodes • Performance metric: • Localization Error • Localization Time • Localization Range • Bias in Location Estimation
