Abstract :
In outdoor emergency rescue, it is of utmost importance to acquire the location of trapped people, the more quickly and precisely the location can be determined, the more chance can be saved for the victims. Taking a mobile phone of trapped people as a localization carrier, this work proposes a Remote Emergency Localization (REL) algorithm to calculate the location of mobile phone based on Portable Base Station (PBS). The performance of REL approach is evaluated by simulation, the results show REL is efficient for outdoor emergency rescue.
