| Abstract | One typical use of sensor networks is monitoring targets. The sensor networks classify, detect, locate, and track targets. The ML (Maximum likelihood) estimation algorithm is one of the estimation algorithms of target location. The ML estimation algorithm has high accuracy to estimate target location. However, the calculation amount of the ML estimation algorithm is large. The EM (Expectation Maximization) algorithm is proposed to reduce the complexity of the ML estimation algorithm. However, the EM algorithm sometimes traps into local minimum. These conventional algorithms to estimate target location use all the sensors' receiving signals. The transmission signal from the target is attenuated with distance. In particular, the effects of noise on the received signals of the sensors far apart from the target are large. The received signals thus do not help a lot to improve the estimation accuracy. In this paper, we propose the new algorithm to estimate a target location with a smaller amount of calculation than the ML estimation algorithm and higher estimation accuracy than the EM algorithm. Moreover, we propose the low complexity source localization method, where we use only the sensors' information with receiving energy higher than threshold. From the simulation results, we show that the proposed algorithm has a smaller amount of calculation than the ML estimation algorithm and higher estimation accuracy than the EM algorithm. We also show that proposed method can reduce the calculation amount while keeping the estimation accuracy by setting threshold appropriately in the ML estimation algorithm and the proposed algorithm. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
