Maneuvering vehicle tracking over the energy harvesting sensor networks

摘要

This paper investigates the maneuvering vehicle tracking problem over an energy harvesting sensor networks. The energy harvesting process of sensor equipped with a sensor harvester is assumed to be periodic. According to the periodic property of the energy harvest and the relationship between energy and SER, α_θ(k)(k) and M_β(k)are proposed to describe the packet dropout rates that depend both on the power levels and the sensor scheduling communication strategy, respectively. Periodic estimators are proposed to estimate the states of the system for the purpose of target tracking. Furthermore, the finite-horizon H_∞performance is also guaranteed through the designed estimators. Finally, an example is used to clarify the effectiveness of the target tracking.
