Abstract:

      A designed localization and management system of an exhibition hall includes wireless sensor networks modules and upper computer management software. It can perform real time remote localization for exhibition visitors. This system initially transmits location information acquired from visitors carried wireless nodes to a remote monitoring center. Its upper management software the analyzes the received data and stores the result position information in a database. Practical operation shows that the system is both stable and reliable and can also be applied to other localization scenarios.
