Abstract :
Solutions for localization have become more critical with recent advancements in short-range wireless communication protocols and location-aware technologies. The assumed condition of three circles intersecting to form an overlapping area in triangle and centroid localization algorithm cannot be met in practical situations. In this paper, we propose the triangle and centroid localization algorithm based on distance compensation because of the impracticability of triangle and centroid localization algorithm. Finally, experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is workable for localization.
