Home automation has been an active and intense area of research since the times when electricity was made available widely. Home automation comprises a number of sub-areas, among which is home monitoring, and home surveillance. Interest in home monitoring has just begun to emerge as a number of sensors become available, exhibiting ever increasing sophistication and offered capabilities. This paper reports on the de Read More

In this paper, we argue that sensors provide a better understanding of geographic events. They produce observations that reflect the natural events taking place at a particular location. The essential part of deriving information about geographic events from sensor observations is to formalize the relations between them. In this spirit, we develop an ontology to capture the relations between weather events and proper Read More

This paper presents a novel approach to combine, process and enrich data from heterogeneous sensor networks, and, further, to semantically annotate the observations of the sensed world thus obtained and publish them on the future Semantic Sensor Web. The processing and systematic annotation of sensor data of diverse nature obtained from an ever growing number of different sources that are beginning to shape the Read More

In cases when the information being collected and processed originates by a multi-sensor system, one has to be aware of the impact of the approaches followed in designing the overall system behavior. Typically, there are many steps involved in processing sensory information, from the time a real-world event takes place until the information that describes it and captures its semantics is stored and is available for further Read More

The deceptive jamming method is one of the effective ways to jam SAR, and in order to implement deceptive jamming, not only should we estimate the main parameters such as frequency, pulse width, PRF, etc, but also need to locate the jammed SAR. This paper is mainly talking about the effect of SAR platform position error on the deceptive jamming. The accuracy of the jammed SAR position required for deception jammi Read More

The data fusion can come down to a process that combines the state vectors from different sources to obtain a more accurate result. Compare to the achieved results that depend on single source, the method has gained an improved performance and reduced the computational complexity and bandwidth of transmission as well. This paper makes use of Probabilistic Data Association (PDA) algorithm and Joint Probabilistic Dat Read More
