Abstract
A distributed localization method has been proposed recently based on a novel concept of angle of departure (AOD) to estimate the angle information and achieve localization. Based on the AOD estimation, we introduce a synthetic uniform circular array (SUCA) synthesized by a rotary antenna to get the distributed localization of the sensors in multi-path environments. The rotated operation of antenna can create the SUCA with a larger aperture to deal with AOD of multi-path components (MPCs) and relaxes the condition that array aperture should be greater than the number of MPCs. This method only relies on radio transceivers without requiring extra measuring equipments, and the sensor nodes conduct localization in a completely distributed manner instead of centralized processing.
