Localization Algorithm Based on DV-HOP for Wireless Sensor Network

摘要

An improved DV-HOP localization algorithm is proposed in the paper, aiming at the traditional DV-HOP localization algorithm. The improved algorithm introduces threshold M, it uses the weighted average hop distances of anchor nodes within M hops to calculate the average hop distance of unknown nodes. In addition, the positioning results are corrected in the improved algorithm. The simulation results show that the improved localization algorithm effectively improves the positioning accuracy compared with the traditional DV-HOP localization algorithm, it is an effective localization algorithm for the wireless sensor networks.
