Abstract
The goal of this document is the implementation of a software tool for the
simulation of the acoustic tracking problem over a wireless sensor network working
in a centralized or distributed manner. Its Graphical User Interface (GUI) allows
the user to configure the parameters associated to the diffusion adaptive algorithms
implemented in the simulation tool, in order to offer a visual representation of the
behavior of a real sensor network working with those settings. For illustration we
ran several simulations, which allowed us to visualize the performance of different
network configurations. The results obtained with the implemented simulation tool
show it can be very helpful to study the audio target tracking problem and ultimately
for the design of sensor networks that can guarantee certain performance criteria.
Moreover, we have developed the code for the implementation of a real acoustictracking
sensor network working in a centralized manner, using ©Libelium’sWaspmote™
sensor boards as the network nodes and using ©Libelium’s Meshlium-Xtreme™ as central
node.
