English Abstract
Recent evolution in wireless communications has developed Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), one of the essential applications in WSN is mobile object tracking.
Tracking indoor objects is mainly finding the location of mobile objects when entering a certain area that is covered by WSN, while this kind of network has many limitations in power and memory.
It is hard to find the accurate position of the mobile target.
In this thesis, we proposed a method to track mobile object inside a building that is covered with WSN implementing ZigBee standards.
This proposed method is an enhancement for the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) that can consider the energy of the node in localization.
In addition, this proposed method is used for finding the location of multiple mobile objects at the same time.
A performance result of this method has been measured and compared with the original RSSI method using NS-2 simulator.
All the achieved simulation results have shown better performance for the proposed methods as compared to the original method.
The Tracking Error improved by 8% and power consumption improved by 7%.
Furthermore, the new network performance measurements have obtained a good value compared with the other measures in term of the network performance measurements such as packet delivery ratio (PDR), delay and throughput improved by 73%, 36% and 45%, respectively
