PrePrint: Taking advantage of user mobility and rendezvous in mobile crowd sourcing applications

Taking advantage of user mobility and rendezvous in mobile crowd sourcing applications

We can compare and combine signals from different mobile sensors when they come close to one another, in order to increase the quality of the data that a sensing system provides. In this article, we examine rendezvous as the key factor that enables sensor fusion in mobile sensing, and some important applications that take advantage of rendezvous.
