The paper proposes a methodology for estimating packet flowing at the sensor level in SDN-WSN based on the partial congestion controller with Kalman filter. Furthermore, the actual purpose of proposing such methodology for predicting in advance the subsequent step of packet flow, and that will consequently contribute in reducing the congestion that might happen. The model proposed (SDN with Kalman filter) is optimized using congestion controller, the methodology of proposed work, the first step random distributed of random node, the apply the Kmean cluster of select the head cluster node in, the connected the network based on LEACH protocol. in this work proposed SDN with Kalman filter for control on network and reduce error of data, where achieve by add buffer memory for each nodes and head cluster to store the data, and SDN control on transmit ion data and receiver data, before transmit apply the Kalman filter on data to reduce error data. The proposed technique, according to simulation findings, extends the network's lifetime by over 30% more than typical WSNs, the reduce the average density of memory to 20% than traditional WSN, and the increase the average capacity of memory to 20% than traditional WSN.

The main factor affecting the localization accuracy is nonline of sight (NLOS) error which is caused by the complicated indoor environment such as obstacles and walls. To obviously alleviate NLOS effects, a polynomial fitting-based adjusted Kalman filter (PF-AKF) method in a wireless sensor network (WSN) framework is proposed in this paper. The method employs polynomial fitting to accomplish both NLOS identification and distance prediction. Rather than employing standard deviation of all historical data as NLOS detection threshold, the proposed method identifies NLOS via deviation between fitted curve and measurements. Then, it processes the measurements with adjusted Kalman filter (AKF), conducting weighting filter in the case of NLOS condition. Simulations compare the proposed method with Kalman filter (KF), adjusted Kalman filter (AKF), and Kalman-based interacting multiple model (K-IMM) algorithms, and the results demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed method. Moreover, experimental results obtained from a real indoor environment validate the simulation results.

In recent years, the rapid development of microelectronics, wireless communications, and electro-mechanical systems has occurred. The wireless sensor network (WSN) has been widely used in many applications. The localization of a mobile node is one of the key technologies for WSN. Among the factors that would affect the accuracy of mobile localization, non-line of sight (NLOS) propagation caused by a complicated environment plays a vital role. In this paper, we present a hierarchical voting based mixed filter (HVMF) localization method for a mobile node in a mixed line of sight (LOS) and NLOS environment. We firstly propose a condition detection and distance correction algorithm based on hierarchical voting. Then, a mixed square root unscented Kalman filter (SRUKF) and a particle filter (PF) are used to filter the larger measurement error. Finally, the filtered results are subjected to convex optimization and the maximum likelihood estimation to estimate the position of the mobile node. The proposed method does not require prior information about the statistical properties of the NLOS errors and operates in a 2D scenario. It can be applied to time of arrival (TOA), time difference of arrival (TDOA), received signal (RSS), and other measurement methods. The simulation results show that the HVMF algorithm can efficiently reduce the effect of NLOS errors and can achieve higher localization accuracy than the Kalman filter and PF. The proposed algorithm is robust to the NLOS errors.

With the development of microelectromechanical system (MEMS), embedded system, and wireless communication, it is now feasible to implement and deploy wireless sensor network (WSN) in emergency communication environment. However, the positioning accuracy of WSN nodes needs to be further improved. To solve the problem, this paper improves the initial value calculation method of multi-hop positioning algorithms, which are suitable for emergency communication environment, and puts forward a WSN node positioning algorithm that narrows the initial values of Kalman filter. By narrowing the initial value range of Kalman filter, the specially deployed sensors could accurately derive its position from the known positions of anchor nodes. To prevent error accumulation in the network, distributed computing was performed to solve the global nonlinear optimization problem, and calculate the position of the nodes. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can improve the WSN positioning accuracy under emergency communication environment, while greatly saving computing and communication costs. The research further improves the practicability and efficiency of multi-hop positioning algorithms in emergency communication environment.
