Abstract: The research on positioning system and spatial alignment is a big topic. In this paper, we proposed a design (that) studies two issues. One is the study of range positioning algorithm based on ZigBee communication system. The other one is spatial alignment platform which is controlled with two servos. Hardware and software control system was realized, which also consists of two parts, ZigBee network positioning system and automatic orientation platform.

Keywords: ZigBee, Wireless Sensor Network, 3D Space Positioning, Spatial Alignment
