Wireless sensor networks are used for monitoring the environment and controlling the physical environment. Information gathered by the sensors is only useful if the positions of the sensors are known. One of the solutions for this problem is Global Positioning System (GPS). However, this approach is prohibitively costly; both in terms of hardware and power requirements. Localization is defined as finding the physical coordinates of a group of nodes. Localization is classified as an unconstrained optimization problem. In this work, we propose a new algorithm to tackle the problem of localization; the algorithm is based on a hybridization of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Simulated Annealing (SA). Simulation results are given to illustrate the robustness and efficiency of the presented algorithm.
