Distributed localization using mobile beacons in wireless sensor networks

A new distributed node localization algorithm named mobile beacons-improved particle filter (MB-IPF) was proposed. In the algorithm, the mobile nodes equipped with globe position system (GPS) move around in the wireless sensor network (WSN) field based on the Gauss-Markov mobility model, and periodically broadcast the beacon messages. Each unknown node estimates its location in a fully distributed mode based on the received mobile beacons. The localization algorithm is based on the IPF and several refinements, including the proposed weighted centroid algorithm, the residual resampling algorithm, and the markov chain monte carlo (MCMC) method etc., which were also introduced for performance improvement. The simulation results show that our proposed algorithm is efficient for most applications.

Localization algorithm based on minimum condition number for wireless sensor networks

During range-based self-localization of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) nodes, the number and placement methods of beacon nodes have a great influence on the accuracy of localization. This paper proves a theorem which describes the relationship between the placement of beacon nodes and whether the node can be located in 3D indoor environment. In fact, as the highest locating accuracy can be acquired when the beacon nodes form one or more equilateral triangles in 2D plane, we generalizes this conclusion to 3D space, and proposes a beacon nodes selection algorithm based on the minimum condition number to get the higher locating accuracy, which can minimize the influence of distance measurement error. Simulation results show that the algorithm is effective and feasible.

Sensitivity-based data fusion for optical localization of a mobile robot

Acoustic-based techniques are the standard for localization and communication in underwater environments, but due to the challenges associated with this medium, it is becoming increasingly popular to find alternatives such as using optics. In our prior work we developed an LED-based Simultaneous Localization and Communication (SLAC) approach that used the bearing angles, needed for establishing optical line-of-sight for LED-based communication between two beacon nodes and a mobile robot, to triangulate and thereby localize the position of the robot. Our focus in this paper is on how to optimally fuse measurement data for optical localization in a network with multiple pairs of beacon nodes to obtain the target location. We propose the use of a sensitivity metric, designed to characterize the level of uncertainty in the position estimate with respect to the bearing angle error, to dynamically select a desired pair of beacon nodes. The proposed solution is evaluated with extensive simulation and experimentation, in a setting of three beacons nodes and one mobile node. Comparison with multiple alternative approaches demonstrates the efficacy of the proposed approach.     

Reference node placement and selection algorithm based on trilateration for indoor sensor networks

The key problem of location service in indoor sensor networks is to quickly and precisely acquire the position information of mobile nodes. Due to resource limitation of the sensor nodes, some of the traditional positioning algorithms, such as two‐phase positioning (TPP) algorithm, are too complicated to be implemented and they cannot provide the real‐time localization of the mobile node. We analyze the localization error, which is produced when one tries to estimate the mobile node using trilateration method in the localization process. We draw the conclusion that the localization error is the least when three reference nodes form an equilateral triangle. Therefore, we improve the TPP algorithm and propose reference node selection algorithm based on trilateration (RNST), which can provide real‐time localization service for the mobile nodes. Our proposed algorithm is verified by the simulation experiment. Based on the analysis of the acquired data and comparison with that of the TPP algorithm, we conclude that our algorithm can meet real‐time localization requirement of the mobile nodes in an indoor environment, and make the localization error less than that of the traditional algorithm; therefore our proposed algorithm can effectively solve the real‐time localization problem of the mobile nodes in indoor sensor networks.
