Mitigating quantization effects on distributed sensor fusion : a least squares approach by Zhu, Shanying, Chen, Cailian, Xu, Jinming, Guan, Xinping, Xie, Lihua, Johansson, Karl Henrick

“…To tackle this challenging issue, we introduce the notion of virtual measurements and propose a distributed solution LS-DSFS, which is a combination of a quantized consensus algorithm and the least squares approach. We provide detailed analysis of the LS-DSFS on its performance in terms of unbiasedness and mean square property. …”
