trilateration approach for 3D localization in wireless sensor networks," in Proc.
Text messages are coded as numerals using the ASCII character set, algorithms are used in encryption and apps while GPS technology relies on
trilateration calculations.
The system uses a process called
trilateration to pinpoint one's position.
The use of GPS technology to get the location of every node will consume a big amount of energy; it's possible to use
trilateration and triangulation techniques [28, 29, 30] to determine the coordinates of every sensor node in the network.
Current trends in OpNav are based on
trilateration (where timing of the transmitted signal is known a priori) and triangulation (where the antenna system's orientation is known a priori).
As pointed in [16], there are three kinds of RSS-based positioning:
trilateration, approximate or similarity perception, and scene analysis.
They basically work like a collection of satellites with which we leverage
trilateration to determine the position of a smartphone.
The most basic algorithm used for positioning based on range estimation is
trilateration [6].
Dilution of precision (DOP) measures are calculated from the geometry of the satellites used to determine a position fix and were developed as a measure of positional accuracy based on
trilateration, the process of determining absolute or relative locations of points using distances and geometry of hyperbolas (Langley 1999).
The majority of localization algorithms assume a dense network
trilateration or multilateration can be organized.
The location is detected using the principle of
trilateration [28].
