A Survey on Localization Algorithms in Wireless Sensor Networks

Article Preview

Abstract:

In the applications based on Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) , localization is one of the most fundamental and important technologies if the accurate location information cant be determined, these application cant be accomplished. Then main idea in localization algorithms is that every unknown node in WSN can localize itself by position information from the landmarks or other nodes. in the last years localization is still a hot field and some new algorithms are proposed. In this paper, the localization algorithms are classified on the basis of the way to get position information, and a simple analysis is present. the paper are ended by discussing some open issues.
