Zusammenfassung:Sensor placement is an important issue for distributed sensor network design, especially when it is used for collaborative tasks (e.g., source localization and tracking). In this paper, the averaged Cramer-Rao Lower Bound (CRLB) of TDOA-based sensor network localization system is derived at first in a more practical scenario where the variance of the Time Of Arrival (TOA) estimate error of each sensor node is proportional to the square of its distance from the source. An adaptive genetic algorithm is then designed and applied to the optimal sensor placement process. A series of simulations are carried out to verify and demonstrate the performance of the proposed method when there is a sound source and 5, 10, 18 and 45 sensor nodes in a square test region, respectively. The simulation results show that the proposed adaptive genetic algorithm works successfully and the obtained optimal sensor placement emerges as an even distribution.
