Conclusions and Future Work
Our results this semester indicate that neither quantization nor noise should cause significant error.
The performence analysis on the resolution map, or web, demonstrates that the resolution of points is extremely dense at a sampling frequency of 50kHz. Notably, that includes all mathematically calculable points, but many of those will not be used realistically. In the future we might attempt to create a web containing only those points which are likely to be calculated. It would also be interesting to see how the arrangement of anchor nodes effects the shape of this web.
The simulations we ran on the effect of noise guarantee us that, with a high volume chirp relative to the surrounding noise, there will be little to no variance for meters away from a given speaker. The bias we came across, which is related to bandwidth, is something worthy of further investigation. Ideally it can be accounted for and subtracted to improve results.
Finally, all the experiments and simulations we have run thus far have had to do with locating a stationary target. Experiments run with a mobile robot demonstrated that our algorithm was not able to track a moving target, though we could locate the robot shortly after it stopped moving. In the future we would like to enhance our algorithm to be able to locate an object continually while it moves.
