Abstract

This paper develops a novel augmented filtering framework based on information weighted consensus fusion, to achieve the simultaneous localization and tracking (SLAT) via wireless sensor networks (WSNs). By integrating augmented transition and observation models, we formulate a dynamical system that encodes both the target moving manners and coarse sensor locations in an augmented state. We then conduct augmented filtering based on augmented extended Kalman filters to estimate the augmented state. We further refine our target estimate according to information weighted consensus filtering which fuses the target information obtained from neighboring sensors. The fused information is fed back as the target estimate to the augmented filter. Our framework is computationally efficient because it only requires neighboring sensor communications. Experiments on SLAT problem validate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm in terms of tracking accuracy and localization precision in limited ranging conditions.
