Abstract
ABSTRACTThis article addresses the problem of tracking a manoeuvring target in a wireless sensor network (WSN) consisting of distance-measuring sensor nodes. In order to cope with target manoeuvres, an interacting multiple model (IMM) filter is applied to estimate the position and velocity of the target. The distance-dependent measurement error of sensors is formulated as both additive and multiplicative noise in the observation equation. To deal with nonlinearities in the process and observation equations and also to solve the problem of multiplicative measurement noise, a new particle filter (PF)-based IMM approach is developed. Furthermore, the multiple-model posterior Cramér-Rao lower bound (PCRLB) is derived in the presence of both additive and multiplicative noise and it is used to perform a sensor selection algorithm to reduce energy consumption in WSN nodes. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed IMMPF and sensor selection algorithms in target tracking.
