Abstract

In order to overcome shortcomings of existing range-free wireless sensor network (WSN) node localization methods such as huge computation volume and great effect of node density on localization precision, a WSN localization algorithm based on adaptive particle swarm optimization (APSO) was put forward in combination with particle swarm theory and DV-Hop algorithm. This algorithm improved localization precision by more than 20%, and the effect of node density on localization precision was significantly less than DV-Hop algorithm without any addition of hardware facilities and communication load.
