Distributed dynamic coalition formation for bearings-only localization in wireless sensor networks

Lifetime maximization is a key challenge in the design of sensor-network-based tracking applications. In this dissertation, formation of optimal coalitions of nodes is investigated for data acquisition in bearings-only target localization such that the average sleep times allocated to the nodes are...
