Abstract :
The sensor network localization problem with distance information is to determine the positions of all sensors in a network given the positions of some sensors and the distances between some pairs of sensors. We present a sequential algorithm for estimating sensor positions when only inaccurate distance measurements are available, and evaluate the performance of the algorithm on simulations of randomly deployed networks of 100 sensors.
