  1. 11. A Cost-Efficient Bluetooth Low Energy Based Indoor Positioning System for IoT Applications

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Sanjana Vupparige Vijaykumar; [2019]
    Keywords : Indoor positioning system; Internet of Things; Bluetooth Low Energy technology; RSSI; fingerprinting; multilateration.;

    Abstract : The indoor positioning system is a series of networking systems used to monitor/locate objects at indoor area as opposed that of GPS which does the same at outdoor. The increase in the popularity of the Internet of Things made the demand for Bluetooth Low Energy technology more and more essential due to their compatibility in the smartphones which makes it to access easier.

  3. 12. Design of a UAV-based radio receiver for avalanche beacon detection using software defined radio and signal processing

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Signaler och System

    Author : Richard Hedlund; [2019]
    Keywords : Signal processing; Software Defined Radio; Avalanche; Beacon; Antenna; SDR; DSP; Signalbehandling; Mjuvarudefinierad Radio; Lavin; Lavinsändare; Antenn; SDR; DSP;

    Abstract : A fully functional proof of concept radio receiver for detecting avalanche beacons atthe frequency 457 kHz was constructed in the work of this master thesis. The radioreceiver is intended to be mounted on an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV or drone)and used to aid the mountain rescue teams by reducing the rescue time in findingavalanche victims carrying a transmitting beacon.

  4. 13. IR-Based Indoor Localisation and Positioning System

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fysik och elektroteknik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Simon Agmell; Marcus Dekker; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a prototype beacon-based indoor positioning system using IR-based triangulation together with various inertial sensors mounted onto the receiver. By applying a Kalman filter, the mobile receivers can estimate their position by fusing the data received from the two independent measurement systems. READ MORE

  5. 14. Designing a Smartphone Application for Identification of Network Devices

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi

    Author : Ebba Busch; Richard Magnusson; [2019]
    Keywords : network device identification; network device installation; IoT; iOS; iPhone application; interaction design; user experience; usability testing; Bluetooth Low Energy; iBeacon; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Today, an increasing amount of physical devices are obtaining Internet connectivity for more efficient management and device communication. In home environments, users may manage devices by providing them descriptive names such as "living room speaker". For a limited set of devices such a solution is often sufficient. READ MORE

  6. 15. Semantic segmentation of seabed sonar imagery using deep learning

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Programvara och system

    Author : Petter Granli; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : For investigating the large parts of the ocean which have yet to be mapped, there is a need for autonomous underwater vehicles. Current state-of-the-art underwater positioning often relies on external data from other vessels or beacons. Processing seabed image data could potentially improve autonomy for underwater vehicles.
