Abstract

Radio signal-based localization and mapping isbecoming more interesting as applications involving the collaborationbetween robots and static wireless devices are morecommon. Under certain assumptions, the problem is basicallyequivalent to the range-only localization and mapping problem.The paper presents a method for mapping with a mobile robotthe position of a set of nodes using radio signal measurements.It uses Gaussian Mixtures for undelayed initialization of theposition of the wireless nodes. The paper shows how theapproach can be integrated within a Kalman Filter. This way,information can be used in the filter since the first measurement.The paper describes simulations to verify the feasibility of theapproach, and presents results obtained with experimental datainvolving one mobile robot and a wireless sensor network.
