Abstract |
Low-cost ZigBee (IEEE 802.15.4) modules were evaluated as an underground radio frequency (RF) positioning technology. The work, which was carried out in two tunnels considered representative of the variety of mining conditions, forms part of a study of location technologies for use in a navigation device in mines and tunnels following an emergency incident....
