Simulation of radio tomography with triangular sensor array
This simulation shows an example of 3D radio tomographic imaging (RTI) along a road, using a triangularly-spaced array of received signal strength (RSS) based nodes on each side of the road. The obstruction is a 3 meter sphere moving at 11 MPH, and the node spacing is roughly 10 meters.
Coverage is very uniform with a triangular grid. However, a sawtooth grid is comparable on average, with some better areas and some worse areas.
