Abstract

In order to solve the problem that the positioning results of DV-hop algorithm are greatly affected by distance estimation errors, a new localization algorithm for wireless sensor network by combining DV-Hop algorithm and extremum disturbed and simple particle swarm optimization (tsPSO) is proposed in this paper. The proposed algorithm iteratively searches for the location of unknown nodes with the distance information received from anchor nodes to suppress the effect of the distance estimation error on positioning accuracy. The simulation results indicate that the proposed algorithm can achieve higher positioning accuracy than that of DV-Hop algorithm and that of DV-Hop algorithm based on standard PSO optimized.
