14. Multisensor Information Fusion and Its Applications (pdf)
Description: Motivated by the fast development of information technology and sensor technology, plenty of large-scale distributed multisensor systems are emerging continuously. The components in these systems are typically spatially distributed, may operate in an asynchronous manner, but have their operation coordinated to achieve desired overall objectives. Accordingly, Multisensor Information Fusion (MIF) is extensively used in many military and civil fields such as target tracking, image processing, economy analysis, robot, sensor networks, navigation and positioning, and electric power etc.

By means of information fusion, different sources of information are combined to improve the performances of a system. In order to collect the data from local sensors, wireless sensor networks are used widely to transmit information from local sensor nodes to the sink node. However, many constraints are introduced because of the distributed structure and the use of sensor networks such as asynchronous sampling, data delay, packet dropout, limited communication bandwidth, the configuration and dynamic topology for sensor networks and so on. The research of MIF faces many difficulties for these constraints. In addition, it is a great challenge for MIF because various fields are paying more attention to information fusion. The current state of the art of such research is the subject of this invited session of multisensor information fusion and its applications.
Keywords: Information Fusion, Asynchronous system, distributed and centralized fusion, wireless sensor networks, constraints, Kalman filter
Submission Topics:
