Distributed local linear parameter estimation using gaussian SPAWN by Leng, Mei, Tay, Wee Peng, Quek, Tony Q. S., Shin, Hyundong

“…We show that gSPAWN converges in mean and has mean-square stability under some technical sufficient conditions, and we describe an application of gSPAWN to a network localization problem in non-line-of-sight environments. Numerical results suggest that gSPAWN converges much faster in general than the diffusion method, and has lower communication costs per sensor, with comparable root-mean-square errors.…”
