Distributed active sensing is a new sensing paradigm, where active sensors and passive sensors are distributed in a field, and collaboratively detect and track the objects. "E...
A distributed estimation algorithm for sensor networks is proposed. A noisy time-varying signal is jointly tracked by a network of sensor nodes, in which each node computes its es...
