Abstract
In this paper, we propose a solution for gunshot location in national parks. In Spain
there are agencies such as SEPRONA that fight against poaching with considerable success.
The DiANa project, which is endorsed by Caba˜neros National Park and the SEPRONA
service, proposes a system to automatically detect and locate gunshots. This work presents
its technical aspects related to network design and planning. The system consists of a
network of acoustic sensors that locate gunshots by hyperbolic multi-lateration estimation.
The differences in sound time arrivals allow the computation of a low error estimator of
gunshot location. The accuracy of this method depends on tight sensor clock synchronization,
which an ad-hoc time synchronization protocol provides. On the other hand, since the areas
under surveillance are wide, and electric power is scarce, it is necessary to maximize detection
coverage and minimize system cost at the same time. Therefore, sensor network planning has
two ...
