Abstract

Aimed at the node localization in WSNs, a distributed localization scheme based on a mobile beacon was proposed in this paper. In the scheme, the mobile beacon promulgates its location information periodically, and nodes do not need to communicate with each other so that the energy consummation is depressed and the computation quantity is small. The scheme can be used in the nonlinear condition and thus is suitable for large WSNs which are deployed outdoors. Simulation results show that this scheme performs well under reasonable parameters.
