Abstract

In this short paper, we consider a mobile bionanosensor net- work for tracking a moving target. Two types of interac- tions are introduced for a group of sensors to collectively perform target tracking: one type of interaction to allow a group of sensors to move toward the target and another type to distribute over the environment. Preliminary results are provided to demonstrate that a group of sensors collectively track a moving target.
