| Abstract | Using phase information from medium bandwidth Doppler Radars, it is possible to obtain motion information corresponding to changes in target range on the order of a wavelength. Comparable range resolution from ranging radars would require much wider bandwidth. For long-range radars, the power consumption depends mostly on transmitted power levels and only weakly on bandwidth. But for short range radars of the type that are most useful in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), transmitted power is usually negligible compared to processing power (i.e., within the radar), and the power budget depends strongly on the bandwidth. Thus, medium-bandwidth Doppler Radars offer the opportunity to achieve finer resolution of relative range information at much lower power at the expense of absolute range information. This demonstration shows that by fusing the relative range profiles from multiple radars it is possible (with acceptable error rates) to construct the absolute trajectory, with sub-centimeter accuracy. Our problem formulation is a bit novel and results in a different computational approach, but the result is conceptually equivalent to creating a velocity-only tracker that uses velocity profiles (i.e., with respect to time) from several different vantage points. Our primary contribution is demonstrating that this can be applied to low power mote-scale sensors. We show a pendulum swinging in the middle of three short range Doppler Radars, which are connected to TelosB motes that are connected to a laptop, on which an estimate of the current location and the recent track of the pendulum is shown with about 100 millisecond delay. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
