Abstract
In this paper, an efficient method for transport tracking through a Wireless Dynamic Sensor Network (WDSN) is developed based on the measurement of the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) in a real urban environment. WDSN deployment is supported by at least two nodes: node-mode-fixed and node-mode-mobile as the unknown node. The estimation of the arrival of university transport bus is by measuring the RSSI to determinate the distance between nodes on a star topology using IEEE 802.15.4. The proposed method consists of de-encapsulating the received frame at the fixed node to obtain the RSSI and the travel time information sent by the mobile node through WDSN. The algorithm to detect the location of the node is based on the static calibration method of the normal logarithmic shadowing (LNSM) parameters. The measurement results show that the proposed method is useful to determinate the location between nodes in smart cities.
