Abstract :
In intelligent street lighting systems where light posts communicate wirelessly, location awareness is necessary for the system to provide context-aware services. To solve the specific localization problem, we developed an iterative algorithm based on the relation between the received signal strength and the distance to assign the known locations to the nodes. Our experimental results show small error rates in the number of wrongly localized nodes, which indicates the algorithm is applicable in practice.
