Abstract :
This paper aims at evaluating two localization algorithms for wireless sensor networks: the weighted centroid localization algorithm and the iterative trilateration. The algorithms are simulated for three different wireless sensor network topologies: the first with randomly distributed anchors the second with uniformly distributed anchors and the third with hybrid distributed anchors.
