Distributed location detection in wireless sensor networks

A distributed location detection problem in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) with M anchors and one node is considered in this paper. In the presence of the transmitting node at a known location, each anchor receives a noisy signal in the presence of node. In the absence of the node, the anchors receive only noise. Each anchor makes a decision as to whether the node is present or not by using a Neyman-Pearson detector. The bit denoting the...
