Abstract

The DV-hop positioning algorithm is range-free positioning algorithm in wireless sensor networks. In order to reduce the positioning error caused by the unknown node positioning within the one-hop distance of the anchor node, a hop-number correction factor based on the Jaccard coefficient is proposed (JDV-hop improved algorithm). Firstly, the positioning problem is converted into the problem of calculating the number of nodes in the area of intersection within the communication radius between neighboring nodes. Then, the differential error in the DDV-hop algorithm is used to solve the problem of calculating the cumulative error of the average distance per hop, and then the average number of nodes per hop is increased. Finally, in the problem of optimal selection of anchor nodes, a credibility factor that allows cooperative positioning between nodes is introduced, and the node with high accuracy of positioning results is effectively converted into an anchor node, thereby achieving the effect of reducing energy consumption. The MATLAB simulation results show that under the same conditions, the improved algorithm has higher positioning accuracy than DDV-hop algorithm and DV-hop algorithm.
