Abstract :
In this paper, a new model of target localization based on underwater sensor networks (USN) is proposed. And several target localization algorithms used in this model are researched. The mathematical principles and the performance of these algorithms are studied in detail. And this paper has also done some research in how the target position and the number of sensors affect the localization precision which can guide the intelligent management of the sensors.
