Localization Techniques of Wireless Sensor Networks: A Review
S. Sivasakthiselvan, V. Nagarajan
Abstract
We present a survey of localization concepts for wireless sensor networks (WSNs). We deliver classification for wireless sensor node localization, comprising measurement techniques and localization algorithms. The objective of our thought is to dissect, how these localization calculations work so as to build the life range of network nodes in unforgiving situations like oil fields, gas fields, forests and underground mines, and so on and how to discover the location of a mobile node with Range-based and Beacon-based Localization strategy in cruel situations. Besides, this paper additionally highlights at some issues experienced with these confinement methods. The Several researches are going ahead in the field of localization to recognize the definite position. That is profoundly attractive to outline for reduce cost, Scalability, and effective localization systems for WSNs.
