In a wireless sensor network (WSN), node localization is a key requirement for many applications. The concept of mobile anchor-based localization is not a new concept; however, the localization of mobile anchor nodes gains much attention with the advancement in the Internet of Things (IoT) and electronic industry. In this paper, we present a range-free localization algorithm for sensors in a three-dimensional (3D) wireless sensor networks based on flying anchors. The nature of the algorithm is also suitable for vehicle localization as we are using the setup much similar to vehicle-to-infrastructure- (V2I-) based positioning algorithm. A multilayer C-shaped trajectory is chosen for the random walk of mobile anchor nodes equipped with a Global Positioning System (GPS) and broadcasts its location information over the sensing space. The mobile anchor nodes keep transmitting the beacon along with their position information to unknown nodes and select three further anchor nodes to form a triangle. The distance is then computed by the link quality induction against each anchor node that uses the centroid-based formula to compute the localization error. The simulation shows that the average localization error of our proposed system is 1.4 m with a standard deviation of 1.21 m. The geometrical computation of localization eliminated the use of extra hardware that avoids any direct communication between the sensors and is applicable for all types of network topologies.

Node positioning technology in wireless sensor network plays an important role in the whole network, and a lot of scholars engage in this field. According to the background that wireless sensor network is applied in Three-Dimensional space, an improved algorithm is proposed in this paper. The algorithm makes the average distance of each hop more rational through choosing the external anchor nodes. After the achievement of the unknown nodes positioning, initial positioning location would be corrected in order to get a higher positioning accuracy. Simulation results show that the accuracy of the improved algorithm is 13% higher than the traditional DV-Hop algorithm.

The wireless sensor network integrates sensor technology, microelectromechanical technology, distributed information processing technology, and wireless communication technology. In order to solve this problem, this paper designs and proposes an anchor node self-location algorithm. Aiming at the positioning accuracy of wireless sensor network nodes, this paper proposes an improved algorithm for sensor network node positioning that uses error correction methods to reduce accumulated distance errors and positioning errors. In this paper, the designed routing algorithm is simulated and implemented, and the performance of the routing algorithm is evaluated based on different network topologies. From the analysis results, compared with the existing typical routing algorithms, the routing algorithms designed in this paper can effectively reduce the energy consumption of the network and prolong the lifetime of the network. The core of the algorithm is to integrate the known and available information of the system to locate unknown anchor nodes. This greatly reduces the number of anchor nodes whose initial position information is required by the system, and under the condition of less impact on the positioning accuracy of the system, the cost of the system is reduced and the scope of application of the system is improved. This paper has deeply studied the positioning and tracking problems in wireless sensor networks, including node positioning, biochemical gas source positioning, and target tracking, and designed and developed a platform for positioning and tracking application research to lay the foundation for further application research. In the study of the above problems, new methods of positioning and tracking with theoretical and practical value are proposed for different practical application scenarios, and the performance is verified and evaluated through computer simulation.

The localization accuracy of traditional APIT localization algorithm for wireless sensor network depends on the Approximate Perfect Point-In-Triangulation Test (APIT), and the localization error can be promoted in sparse network. We design one improved localization algorithm (RTD-APIT) based on APIT by using the RSSI and the triangles deformation. RTD-APIT uses the RSSI to improve the APIT for achieving the preliminary location of unknown node, and expand or deform the triangles for solving the Point-In-Triangulation (PIT) problem well and enhancing the localization. Simulation shows RTD-APIT can reduce the localization error effectively, and it also promote the localization coverage.

To address the problem that anchor ratio had a strong impact on localization error and coverage in centroid algorithm in wireless sensor network (WSN), an improved algorithm was proposed. This algorithm differentiated the priority of the unknown nodes according to the distance between unknown nodes and anchors. The algorithm was proposed to locate the unknown nodes with the highest priority, and then update them to new anchors. Finally, the rest unknown nodes are located by centroid algorithm. The simulation results show that this improved algorithm can effectively reduce the localization error and enhance the coverage when the anchor ratio is lower.

A challenging problem that arises in the Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is localization. It is essential for applications that need information about target positions, are inside an indoor environment. The Localization scheme presented in this experiment consists of four anchor nodes that change their position coordinates and one target node that is used to control the distance. The Localization algorithm designed in this paper makes use of the combination of two algorithms; the Received Strength Signal Indication (RSSI) and Weight Centroid Localization Algorithm (WCLA), called the RSSI-WCLA algorithm. The laboratory results show that the fusion between the RSSI-WCLA algorithm is outstanding than RSSI and WCLA algorithms itself in terms of localization accuracy. However, our proposed algorithm shows that the maximum error distance is less than 0.096m.
