Abstract
Using wireless sensor networks for object tracking requires ordering events with regard to time and location. In labyrinth-shaped topologies, one-dimensional ordering suffices within the different sections of the network. We present an algorithm that decomposes the network into such sections, tracks objects within using binary sensors and, if required, hands them over to the next section. We evaluate our approach through extensive simulations and show that it is robust against sensor failures and packet loss.
