Node deployment strategy for WSN-based node-sequence localization considering specific paths

In wireless sensor network (WSN) applications, information of detection location for sensing changes in the environment is very important. Sequence-based Localization (SBL) is a well-known localization mechanism for WSN that can be deployed quickly and utilized right after deployment. In our previous study, we have already designed and developed a deployment strategy for the sensor nodes that can effectively reduce location error in SBL. In this paper we further consider the condition when the target is used to moving in specific paths in the sensing environment. We can then deploy sensor nodes to optimize the location error along the paths.
