Research of Localization Issues in Underwater Sensor Networks

摘要

Localization problem has great significance in the applications of underwater sensor networks (UWSN), such as real-time monitoring, target tracking and navigation. This paper analized a series of challenges in underwater localization problem, introduced exsiting localization algorithms and discussed their advantages and disadvantages, and then the development trend of localization problem is discussed. Finally, we give some suggestions in the design of localization algoprithms.
