We present a particle-based framework for estimating the position of a vehicle using map information and measurements of speed. Two measurement functions are considered. The first is based on the assumption that the lateral force on the…
Decentralized systems are a subset of distributed systems where multiple authorities control different components and no authority is fully trusted by all. This implies that any component in a decentralized system is potentially…
Localization in mobile networks has been widely applied in many scenarios. However, an entity responsible for location estimation exposes both the target and anchors to potential location leakage at any time, creating serious security…
