Localization of transmitters and receiving sensors is achieved by measuring radiation emitted by a source to a set of sensors, which are either on a definite pattern, known as an array, or one randomly located at irregular points, known as a distributed sensor array. This book discusses how to determine the position of sensors and transmit information to a central node, also known as the... Read more

Biography

Prabhakar S. Naidu obtained a Bachelor of Science degree and Master of Technology degree from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagapur, followed by a Ph.D. from UBC, Canada. He worked for nearly 30 years at the Indian Institute of Science in Bangalore as a Professor in the Department of Electrical and Communication Engineering. In 1965, he was awarded NRC (Canada) fellowship, followed by the Alexander von Humboldt Fellowship. He holds a Senior Research Associateship from NRC (USA) and is listed in Marquis’ 17th Edition of "Who's Who in the World." Dr. Naidu has also worked as a visiting Scientist at the Australian Telecommunication Research Center. His research interests include array signal processing, spectrum analysis of time series, and geophysical signal processing.
