RSSI Based Monte-Carlo Localization Boxed Algorithm

Article Preview

Abstract:

The maximum communication radius is applied to estimate the distance between one hop nodes in the MCB algorithm. However, the distance is generally less than the communication radius in practical applications which will result in the location error to some extent. So, the distance estimated by the received signal strength indication (RSSI) is used to substitute the communication radius in MCB algorithm to improve the estimation precision. The simulation results show that the average localization accuracy of the proposed algorithm is improved by about 14% comparing with the MCB algorithm.
