Abstract
In order to improve the accuracy of nodes in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). An multi-barycenter localization algorithm based on improved received signal strength indication (RSSI) ranging is proposed. The algorithm first optimizes the RSSI values by the iterative filtering, the distance values of WSNs nodes could be more accurately calculated. And then a multi-barycenter algorithm is introduced to optimize the trilateral localization. The simulation results show that the algorithm can improve the positioning accuracy by 30% compared with the traditional trilateral localization algorithm. Finally, through the localization test of 5 WSN nodes, the measured localization deviation of the WSN nodes is controlled at about 2 m when the distance of sensor node is 80 m. The proposed method could improve localization accuracy effectively without increasing computing resources.
