Advanced Sequence-Based Localization Algorithm in Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract:

As an important application of Internet of Things , Wireless Sensor Networks utilized in surveillance and other case.Localization of nodes in wireless sensor networks is the prerequisite and base of target tracking in some surveillance applications, so localization error of sensor nodes is a key. However, due to limited energy, unreliable link and limited communication ranges of sensor nodes, high accurate positioning is difficult to achieve, which made it hot and full of challenging for wireless sensor nodes to localize without any auxiliary facilities. Range-based localization algorithm , could achieve good accuracy but require measuring devices, thus it is not appropriate for large-scale wireless sensor networks.So range-free localization algorithms are more popular.This paper analyses the algorithms in range-free localization,and proposed Advanced Sequence-Based Localization algorithm to improve the performance of positioning algorithm in wireless sensor network.
