文摘A hierarchical wireless sensor networks(WSN) was proposed to estimate the plume source location.Such WSN can be of tremendous help to emergency personnel trying to protect people from terrorist attacks or responding to an accident.The entire surveillant field is divided into several small sub-regions.In each sub-region,the localization algorithm based on the improved particle filter(IPF) was performed to estimate the location.Some improved methods such as weighted centroid,residual resampling were introduced to the IPF algorithm to increase the localization performance.This distributed estimation method eliminates many drawbacks inherent with the traditional centralized optimization method.Simulation results show that localization algorithm is efficient for estimating the plume source location.
