Abstract

Localization is critical for various applications of Wireless Sensor Networks. This paper presents a 3D localization algorithm for high accuracy localization of a wireless sensor network, which consists of three parts: pre-localization, refinement and sequence search. It is clear that the localization accuracy partly depends on the localization sequence of the unknown nodes, which has not been investigated so far. The proposed novel algorithm aims to address this problem by searching a localization sequence corresponding to a high localization accuracy and a robust algorithm. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can get rid of the flip ambiguity and is more robust than several existing algorithms in terms of the localization accuracy.
