Abstract |
Localization is an essential issue in Wireless Sensor Networks(WSNs). Localization algorithms can be categorized as centralized or distributed algorithms. DV-HOP(distance-vector hop) is an example of Distributed algorithm, which provides an effective result when number of nodes is extremely large. We propose a simple technique for improving the performance of DV-HOP algorithm based on shortest path distance estimates, even when number of sensor nodes deployed is small called EDV-HOP(enhanced distance vector hop). The Localization error and Position Efficiency using EDV-HOP is low as compared to DV-HOP, hence depicting an improvement in accuracy of estimated positions of unknown nodes. |
