Network Design and Management for a Pseudolite and GPS Based Ubiquitous Positioning System. The Locata positioning technology uses a network of terrestrial based signal transmitters (pseudolites) and GPS satellites, to provide ubiquitous positioning (indoors and outdoors) in difficult environments. This research student project will focus on the intelligence associated with the pseudolite network such as: autonomous network installation, network integrity, and quality control. The implementati ....Network Design and Management for a Pseudolite and GPS Based Ubiquitous Positioning System. The Locata positioning technology uses a network of terrestrial based signal transmitters (pseudolites) and GPS satellites, to provide ubiquitous positioning (indoors and outdoors) in difficult environments. This research student project will focus on the intelligence associated with the pseudolite network such as: autonomous network installation, network integrity, and quality control. The implementation of innovative algorithms and methodologies developed in this research, will allow a robust, reliable and accurate positioning system for challenging indoor and outdoor environments, where current systems cannot work satisfactorily.Read moreRead less
Structural Deformation Monitoring Integrating a New Wireless Positioning Technology with GPS. In today's society, current positioning technologies are unable to provide location information with the necessary accuracy, reliability, and low cost, for an expanding number of location aware applications. Locata's positioning technology has the potential to meet these requirements through a network of terrestrial based signal transmitters and GPS integration. The proposed research will provide adva ....Structural Deformation Monitoring Integrating a New Wireless Positioning Technology with GPS. In today's society, current positioning technologies are unable to provide location information with the necessary accuracy, reliability, and low cost, for an expanding number of location aware applications. Locata's positioning technology has the potential to meet these requirements through a network of terrestrial based signal transmitters and GPS integration. The proposed research will provide advanced training to graduate students and enable this technology to be realised. The application of the technology is almost limitless, from surveying and civil engineering projects, manufacturing industries and consumer Location Based Services (LBS), where the benefits would be enormous.Read moreRead less
