Abstract: | Copyright © 2022 The Authors. This paper presents a novel work on localization of transmitters using triangulation with sensors at fixed positions. This is achieved when three or more sensors cover the whole area, a factor which enables the system to perform localization via triangulation. The network needs to keep a high detection rate which, in most cases, is achieved by adequate sensor coverage. Various tests using various grids of sensors have been carried out to investigate the way the system operates in different cases using a lot of transmitters. Detection complexity is tackled by finding the optimal detecting sensor radius in order for the network to continue operate normally. The coverage quality changes in the area of interest and the network is able to detect new transmitters that might enter the area of interest. It is also shown that as the number of transmitters increases the network keeps its high performance by using additional groups of sensors in a sub-region area of that of interest. This way, even when the network is saturated by many transmitters in one region, new transmitters can still be detected. |
