ABSTRACT:
Network localization is a
fundamental problem in wireless sensor networks, mainly in location dependent
applications. A common family of solutions to this problem is the range-based
network localization. The resulting localization algorithms are noise sensitive
and thus lacking in terms of robustness. Our contribution provides an algorithm
which is robust to measurement errors. We propose an analytical tool to analyze
the effect of range errors in the final location and use a distributed method
to solve the noisy range localization problem.
