Abstract

Localization in sensor networks deals with the estimation of the position of the sensor node in a network for a given incomplete and inaccurate pair-wise distance measurements. Such distance data may be acquired by a sensor node by communicating with neighboring nodes called anchor nodes whose positions are known apriori. This paper proposes a Kalman filtering based distance estimation algorithm for indoor wireless sensor networks. In this paper, the distance of the unknown node is computed based on the
