Mobile node localization is one of the key technologies in wireless sensor network applications. Aiming at shortcomings Monte Carlo algorithm (MCL) mobile nonideal environments, such as low accuracy and sampling rate, prediction phase filtering MCL, communication radius unknown determined according to size irregularity node. Perform layering, assign adaptive weights anchor nodes different layer...

As the mobile node localization algorithm in three-dimensional environment cannot meet the demand of actual application, a hybrid mobile node localization algorithm for a wireless sensor network (WSN) in three-dimensional environment is proposed in this paper, which is based on the least squares support vector regression (LSSVR) and Kalman filter (KF). The proposed algorithm firstly constructs ...

Accurate location information is critical to many applications in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) such as target tracking, environmental monitoring and geographical routing. Localization aims to figure out the locations of unknown nodes based on global locations of anchors and inter-node distance measurements. However, the existence of outlier anchors and outlier distances degrade localization ...

Sensor Node Localization is considered to be one of the most critical issues in a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). The objective of localization is determination of physical co-ordinates of a group of sensor nodes. The location information plays a vital role for coverage, deployment of sensor nodes and rescue operations. Many applications such as routing and target tracking are all location depen...

Mobile anchor path planning techniques have provided as an alternative option for node localization in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). In such context, path planning is a movement pattern where a mobile anchor node's movement is designed in order to achieve a maximum localization ratio possible with a minimum error rate. Typically, the mobility path planning is designed in advance, which is ap...

Localisation is one of the most important issues in wireless sensor networks, because the location information is typically useful for coverage, deployment, routing, location service, target tracking and rescue operations in wireless sensor networks. The localisation protocols are classified into two categories: range-based protocol and range-free protocol. The range-based protocols employ dist...

This Msc. Thesis builds upon a work-in progress called collocal which researched room-level indoor-localization. Localization is the action of estimating the position of a certain entity on a map. For example tracking the postion of furniture and other inventory in a building over a long period of time. To localize these entities other static nodes are employed that know their own location. The...
