RESEARCH:

Landscape 3D method: A robust localization scheme using Unscented Kalman Filter-2012 In Landscape 3D a LA periodically broadcast its current location while it moves around a sensor field. Each sensor collects the location beacons, measures the distance between itself and the LA based on received signal strength (RSS), and individually calculates their location via Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) based algorithm.

A Compressive Radar System With Chaotic-Based Fm Signal Using The Bernoulli Map-2013 In this research, it is proposed that compressive sensing be implemented using a chaotic radar system. The goal is to eliminate the need for a matched filter and at the same time increase the target res olution. This above paper was further researched by using different maps such as instead of Bernoulli map, Tent, Logistic and Quadratic maps were used which gave satisfying results. ACTIVITIES/HONOURS:
