Abstract
This paper presents distance and angle measurements based Multi-Hop Adaptive and Iterative Localization algorithm for localization of unknown nodes in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). The present work determines uncertainty region of unknown nodes with respect to known (anchor) nodes using noisy distance and angle measurements. This node transmits its uncertainty region to other unknown nodes to help them determine their uncertainty region. Because of noisy distance and angle measurements, the error propagation increases the size of regions of nodes in subsequent hops. Using only one anchor node as reference, the proposed iterative localization algorithm reduces the error propagation of this noisy distance and angle measurements and the uncertainty region of all unknown nodes within a given communication range. The results clearly indicate the improved efficiency of the proposed algorithm in comparison with existing algorithms.
