Consider $n$ mobile sensors placed independently at random with the uniform distribution on a barrier represented as the unit line segment $[0,1]$. The sensors have identical sensing radius, say $r$. When a sensor is displaced on the line a…
The fundamental problem of energy-efficient reallocation of mobile random sensors to provide full coverage without interference is addressed in this paper. We consider $n$ mobile sensors with identical sensing range placed randomly on the…
This paper investigates the problem of the minimilization of energy consumption in reallocation of wireless mobile sensors network (WMSN) to assure good communication without interference. Fix $d\in\mathbb{N}\setminus\{0\}.$ Assume $n$…
In this paper, the authors propose a two-dimensional, wide dynamic range, linear displacement sensor using microwave methods. The microwave sensor circuit employs a cylindrical dielectric resonator proximity coupled to a pair of orthogonal…
This paper deals with random sensors initially randomly deployed on the line according to general random process and on the plane according to two independent general random processes. The mobile robot with carrying capacity $k$ placed at…
This paper regards the problem of optimally placing unreliable sensors in a one-dimensional environment. We assume that sensors can fail with a certain probability and we minimize the expected maximum distance from any point in the…
Within this work a passive and wireless magnetic sensor, to monitor linear displacements is proposed. We exploit recent advances in 3D printing and fabricate a polymer bonded magnet with a spatially linear magnetic field component…
We give an explicit formula for the mean square displacement of the random walk on the $d$-dimensional Manhattan lattice after $n$ steps, for all $n$ and all dimensions $d \geq 2$.
This paper proves the formula \nu(d) =1 for d=1 and \nu(d) = max(1/4 +1/d, 1/2) for d > 1 for the root mean square displacement exponent \nu(d) of the self-avoiding walk (SAW) in Z^d, and thus, resolves some major long-standing open…
Displacement sensing is a fundamental task in metrology. However, the development of quantum-enhanced sensors that fully utilize the available degrees of freedom in many-body quantum systems remains an outstanding challenge. We propose…
The aim of the dispersion problem is to place a set of $k(\leq n)$ mobile robots in the nodes of an unknown graph consisting of $n$ nodes such that in the final configuration each node contains at most one robot, starting from any arbitrary…
In this paper, we introduce a sensor designed for integration in robot fingers, where it can provide information on the displacements induced by external contact. Our sensor uses LEDs to sense the displacement between two plates connected…
Given a positive real value $\delta$, a set $P$ of points along a line and a distance function $d$, in the movement to independence problem, we wish to move the points to new positions on the line such that for every two points $p_{i},p_{j}…
Decentralized control of mobile robotic sensor networks is a fundamental problem in robotics that has attracted intensive research in recent decades. Most of the existing works dealt with two-dimensional spaces. This report is concerned…
Beam alignment enables efficient, stable transmission and control of optical energy and information, which critically depend on precise monitoring and regulation of the three-dimensional (3D) relative positioning between fibers. This study…
This paper presents the theory and key experimental findings for an investigation into the generation of bimodal resonance (frequency splitting) phenomena in mutually over-coupled inductive sensors, and its exploitation to evaluate relative…
In this paper we focus on the mobile sensor coverage problem formulated as a continuous locational optimization problem. Cort\`es et al. first proposed a distributed version of the Lloyd descent algorithm with guaranteed convergence to a…
When probe molecules of interest are embedded in a container or aggregate under stochastic motion, one needs to rely on the so-called two-point mean square displacement (MSD) measurement to extract the intrinsic mobility of the probes. We…
Mobile sensor networks are important for several strategic applications devoted to monitoring critical areas. In such hostile scenarios, sensors cannot be deployed manually and are either sent from a safe location or dropped from an…
As the main problem, we consider covering of a $d$-dimensional cube by $n$ balls with reasonably large $d$ (10 or more) and reasonably small $n$, like $n=100$ or $n=1000$. We do not require the full coverage but only 90\% or 95\% coverage.…
