For such level of accuracy, Range-free localization techniques are being explored as low cost alternatives to range based localization techniques. To manage cost, few location aware nodes, called anchors are deployed in the wireless sensor environment. It is from these anchors that all other free nodes are expected to estimate their own positions. This paper therefore, takes a look at some of the foremost Range-free localization algorithms, detailing their limitations, with a view to proposing a modified form of Centroid Localization Algorithm called Reach Centroid Localization Algorithm. The algorithm employs a form of anchor nodes position validation mechanism by looking at the consistency in the quality of Received Signal Strength. Each anchor within the vicinity of a free node seeks to validate the actual position or proximity of other anchors within its vicinity using received signal strength. This process mitigates multipath effects of radio waves, particularly in an enclosed environment, and consequently limits localization estimation errors and uncertainties. Centroid Localization Algorithm is then used to estimate the location of a node using the anchors selected through the validation mechanism. Our approach to localization becomes more significant, particularly in indoor environments, where radio signal signatures are inconsistent or outrightly unreliable. Simulated results show a significant improvement in localization accuracy when compared with the original Centroid Localization Algorithm, Approximate Point in Triangulation and DV-Hop.展开更多

The centroid algorithm is a typical range-free localization algorithm, which possesses the advantages such as simple localization principle and easy realization. However, susceptible to be influenced by the density of anchor node and uniformity of deployment, its localization accuracy is not high. We study localization principal and error source of the centroid algorithm. Meanwhile, aim to resolve the problem of low localization accuracy, we proposes a new double-radius localization algorithm, which makes WSN node launch periodically two rounded communications area with different radius to enable localization region to achieve the second partition, thus there are some small overlapping regions which can narrow effectively localization range of unknown node. Besides, partition judgment mechanism is proposed to ascertain the area of unknown node, and then the localization of small regions is realized by the centroid algorithm. Simulation results show that the algorithm without adding additional hardware and anchor nodes but increases effectively localization accuracy and reduces the dependence on anchor node.展开更多
