Woosik Lee, Namgi Kim · The Journal of the Institute of Webcasting, Internet and Telecommunication · 2009
Because ubiquitous environment has come with growing IT technology, Researches wireless sensor network are actively on going in many aspects. In this paper, we proposed simple method of distance measurement for omnidirectional distance calculation in wireless sensor network. In addition, we design and implement the proposed method. Then, we verify it through experiments at real environments. when we use the proposed method, maximum distance of measurement is decreased, but we measure distance from degrees. In this paper, we show drop rate and accuracy rate of ultrasonic distance estimation with and without omnidirectional device through experiments at real environments.
