Abstract :
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have been shown to be most suitable for monitoring large and possibly inaccessible areas. To assign measured values to certain positions as well as for complex network algorithms, localization represents a required basic capability. By splitting a costly localization calculation into precalculation and postcalculation, Distributed Least Squares (DLS) has been introduced as an efficient approach of fine grained localization.
