| Abstract | In this paper we present a combined Time-of-Flight (ToF) and Direction-of-Arrival (DoA) localization approach suitable for shallow underwater monitoring applications such as harbor monitoring. Our localization approach combines one-way ranging and DoA estimation to calculate both position and time-synchronization of the blind-node. We will show that using this localization approach, we are able to reduce the number of reference nodes required to perform localization. By combining ToF and DoA, our approach is also capable of tracking and positioning of sound sources under water. We evaluate our approach through both simulation and underwater experiments in a ten meter deep dive-center (which has many similarities with our target application in terms of depth and reflection). Measurements taken at the dive-center show that this environment is highly reflective and resembles a shallow water harbor environment. Positioning results using the measured Time-of-Arrival (ToA) and DoA indicate that the DoA approach outperforms the ToF approach in our setup. Investigation of the DoA and ToF measurement error distributions, however, indicate the ToF-based localization approach has a higher precision. Shown is that both ToF and DoA and the combined approach achieve sub-meter positional accuracy in the test environment. Using the error distributions derived from the measurement in the dive-center, we run simulations of the same setup. Results from the simulation indicate ToF is more accurate than DoA positioning. Also in simulation all approaches achieve sub-meter accuracy. |

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.
