Guided navigation of friendly object towards mobile target in wireless sensor networks

Tracking mobile targets is an important wireless sensor network application in both military and civilian fields. Often, it may be necessary for sending additional resources to the vicinity of the mobile target. In such a scenario, it is pertinent to provide continuous guidance to the friendly resource moving towards the mobile target. This paper presents a mechanism for the guidance of a friendly object towards the mobile target, and associated performance analysis in terms of the time taken to reach the target.
