Abstract

Node localization technology is an important technology for the Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) applications. An improved 3D node localization algorithm is proposed in this paper, which is based on a Multi-dimensional Scaling (MDS) node localization algorithm for large electrical equipment monitoring applications. The proposed algorithm utilizes the relative information of anchor nodes to calculate the distance of two nodes with two hops in a non-line of sight (NLOS) condition. This proposed algorithm improves the positioning accuracy and reduces the effect of the measurement error, which is based on the combination of node's Time of Arrival (TOA) and Angle of Arrival (AOA) measurement information. Simulation results show the proposed algorithm outperforms than the traditional Multidimensional Scaling (MDS-MAP) algorithm.
