Abstract

Abstract: Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN’s) have been finding to itself new applications continuously. Many of these applications need location information of nodes. The localization of nodes can be made by range based or range free localization methods conventionally. Angle-of-Arrival (AoA), Time-Difference-of-Arrival (TDoA), Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI), Time-of-Arrival (ToA) are well known range based methods. Therefore AoA, ToA and TDoA have some hardware and software difficulties for nodes which have limited processing and power sources. However RSSI based localization doesn’t cost high processing resources or complex hardware modifications. Most of the WSN nodes already have RSSI measurement capability. However RSSI measurements is vulnerable to noise and environmental effects. Therefore error of RSSI based localization can be over to an acceptable level. Centroid, APIT, DV-Hop and Amorphous are some of the range free localization methods. Range free methods can only give location information approximately but they don’t need any extra hardware or high processing capability. In this study WSN nodes are assumed randomly or regularly distributed on a certain area. Some of the nodes are beacon nodes. The beacon nodes are assumed as having higher power resources and GPS receivers. The locations of nodes are assumed as fixed. The beacon nodes send their location information sequentially. Localization of nodes are made through RSSI and location information of beacon nodes. The mean of RSSI is calculated to reduce effect of noise on it. A rough location estimation made by weighted centroid. A probabilistic based location estimation and flower pollination algorithm (FPA) are used separately to make final decision about the location. Rough estimates are used to limit search area of flower pollination algorithm in order to reduce convergence time.
