Abstract

Abstract: To address the problems of Approximate Point-In-Triangulation Test (APIT) algorithm in Wireless Sensor Network requiring high anchor node density, Out-To-In or In-To-Out error judgment, nodes failure and so on, an improved APIT localization algorithm based on Wireless Sensor Network was proposed. The method based on directional searched node and combined with RSSI ranging calculation by Gaussian fitting method was used to deal with error judgment. Besides, a geometrical method was used to process the failure nodes. The simulation results show that the improved localization algorithm performs greatly better, both in positioning accuracy and number of error judgment, than the traditional APIT localization algorithm and the modified localization algorithm of APIT based on mobile anchor node.
