Abstract: A frequency hopping method for localization system is aimed to overcome the degradation of location accuracy due to radio interference if there are some other radio devices using the same radio frequency as a localization system. A Packet Reception Rate (PRR) thresholding or a learning-based approach for the diagnostic test is proposed. In that, a PRR thresholding or a set of parameters trained by Hidden Markov Model (HMM) is used as a criterion to decide whether or not to hop. The proposed hopping mechanism provides an accurate and stable localization with a minimum delay.

Abstract: A multi-path data dissemination method for a magnetic diffusion wireless network and a system thereof overcome environmental interferences in wireless data transmissions. Each node of the network is provided for figuring out its good neighbors by broadcasting a good-neighbor exploratory message in a bootstrap process. Each node keeps a good-neighbor table containing nodes with a RSSI higher than a threshold of the good-neighbor table. A magnetic field of a magnetic diffusion (MD) dissemination method capable of determining a data dissemination path is created according to the good-neighbor tables to ensure that the data can be forwarded to a data sink successfully.

Abstract: A method of predicting a position of an object includes the steps of (1) providing a filter for tracking at least one object and obtaining a first position and a first speed of the object at a first time, (2) providing a first acceleration of the object at the filter at the first time, (3) setting a second time by the filter, and (4) outputting a second position of the object at the second time by the filter according to the first position, the first speed, the first acceleration, the first time and the second time, so as to provide a way of predicting a position of an object more accurately.
