Abstract
In order to facilitate communication without waste of energies and interference, a rational mechanism will be established in this article. The accuracy of Cricket depends on another two important issues too; one is the method to obtain the distance between listeners and beacons, and other is the algorithm to compute the coordinate of a listener. And they will be introduced in detail in the paper. This paper presents the design, implementation, and evaluation of Cricket, a location-support system for in-building, mobile, location dependent application. It allows applications running on mobile and static nodes to learn their physical location by using listeners that hear and analyze information from beacons spread throughout the building. In this paper, a decentralized architecture based on Cricket is presented; it can reduce the interference and consumption of beacons’ energies efficiently.
