Human Behavior Cognition Using Smartphone Sensors

TL;DR: Preliminary tests indicate that the LoMoCo (Location-Motion-Context) model, which combines the latest positioning technologies and phone sensors to capture human movements in natural environments and use the movements to study human behavior, has successfully achieved the Activity-Level Descriptors level.

Relative Positioning Enhancement in VANETs: A Tight Integration Approach

TL;DR: A CP method is presented to improve the relative positioning between two vehicles within a VANET, fusing the available low-level Global Positioning System (GPS) data.

Faster GPS via the sparse fourier transform

TL;DR: This paper presents the fastest GPS locking algorithm to date, which exploits the sparse nature of the synchronization problem, where only the correct alignment between the received GPS signal and the satellite code causes their cross-correlation to spike.

A Survey and Analysis of the GNSS Spoofing Threat and Countermeasures

TL;DR: This survey aims to assess in detail the exact nature of threat scenarios posed by spoofing against the most commonly cited targets, and to survey and assess the effectiveness of a wide range of proposed defences against GNSS spoofing.

Randomized initialization protocols for ad hoc networks

TL;DR: This work proposes efficient randomized initialization protocols for ad hoc networks (AHN) and shows that if the number n of stations is known beforehand, an n-station, single-channel AHN can be initialized with probability exceeding 1-(1/n), in en+O(/spl radic/(nlogn)) time slots, regardless of whether the AHN has collision detection capability.
