Mobile Node Localization Based on Mean Shift and Joint Particle Filter in Wireless Sensor Networks

In order to localize the mobile sensor nodes in real time and with high accuracy, by employing mean shift algorithm to generate the proposal distribution for the joint particle filter, a novel mobile node localization algorithm is proposed, which we called Mean Shift Particle Filter. The mean shift particle filter algorithm significantly improves the accuracy of the particle state estimation and reduces the necessary number of samples by using the current observations in sampling procedure to obtain a sample distribution, which is more close to the state posterior distribution. It also reduces the interference among multiple targets in close proximity by weighting samples according to the virtual hamming distances and interaction potentials. Extensive simulation results confirm that this localization approach outperforms basic particle filter and its localization accuracy is comparable to the unscented particle filter, but its computation cost is 50% less than that of unscented particle filter.
