Abstract
Based on ubiquitous networks, many schemes have been proposed for realization of u-city. For abundance of u-city services to be available, mobile agents can be utilized in ubiquitous networks. However, highly accurate positioning is required for the efficient use of the mobile agents in ubiquitous networks. In this paper, an intelligent diversity scheme is proposed to enhance the positioning performance. Simulation results indicate that using the suggested diversity scheme, the positioning performance can significantly be improved in mobile agents for u-city.
