Abstract:
We propose an alternating optimization algorithm for localizing a mobile non-cooperative target using a wireless sensor network. We consider the scenario where sensors receive single-bounce non-line-of-sight signals from the moving target. Each sensor is able to measure the target signal's angle-of-arrival and received signal strength. The transmit powers of the non-cooperative target at different locations are unknown, and estimated jointly with its locations and the orientations of the scatterers off which the target signals are reflected before reaching the sensors. We formulate the problem as a non-convex least squares problem, and then transform and approximate it into a form that is solvable by an alternating algorithm. We show that our algorithm converges, and simulation results demonstrate that our algorithm is able to localize the target with good accuracy.
