Research Abstract

In this study, for dynamic position measurement of sensor nodes in wireless sensor networks, novel high resolution RF Time-of-Flight(ToF) measurement principle between the sensor nodes is proposed, which applies' vernier effect' to operation clock of the nodes. While the proposed ToF measurement principle has been generalized, its validities are confirmed through several experimental conditions. In addition, advanced ToF measurement method on which non-synchronized mutual communications are operated is also proposed, which is more suitable for the wireless sensor network schemes regardless the same' vernier effect' is applied. Furthermore, asynchrony problem of ToF measurement has been discussed, and finally, prototype sensor node boards are fabricated for simultaneous acquisition of node position and physical measured quantities.
