Accurate range-based distributed localization of wireless sensor nodes using grey wolf optimizer

Various ranging techniques are frequently employed in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) to determine the distance between a node and its neighboring anchor nodes. The distance measurement, as mentioned earlier is subsequently employed to estimate the location of the node whose location is unknown. Th...

Description
Summary:Various ranging techniques are frequently employed in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) to determine the distance between a node and its neighboring anchor nodes. The distance measurement, as mentioned earlier is subsequently employed to estimate the location of the node whose location is unknown. The present paper presents an Accurate Localization Scheme that utilizes Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO) and is based on the Radio Signal Strength (RSS) ranging technique. The efficiency of our technique has been proved through extensive simulations, showing a consistent improvement in localization accuracy ratios and a decrease in location errors while maintaining cost-effectiveness.
