Self organizing WSN collaborative beamforming for HAP communications

M. F. Urso, M. Mondin, E. Falletti, F. Sellone, S. Arnon

In this paper, the possible use of Distributed and Collaborative BeaMForming (DC-BMF) is analyzed within a HAP-based scenario, with the goal of enhancing the capability of a single sensor to communicate its data to the HAP. In particular, self-localization techniques for WSNs performing DC-BMF are studied, and a closed form solution for beamforming degradation is derived, which allows to select the collaborative sub-network dimension on the basis of the required transmission gain.
