摘要: 针对现有的测距无关定位算法不能在定位精度和定位开销之间较好平衡的问题,提出了信号强度辅助的定位算法SAL (Signal Strength Assisted Localization),充分利用无线电接收信号强度随距离定性衰减的规律,对单跳范围内的锚节点进行更细粒度的区分,并将距离远近信息应用于待定位节点的位置估计。在不需要额外硬件、不增加通信开销的情况下有效提高了节点的定位精度,并确保网络定位覆盖率为100%。大量仿真和平台现场试验表明,SAL兼具质心法实现简单和APIT定位精度高的优势,在随机大规模仿真和现场试验中SAL的定位精度均高于APIT;在平均情况下,SAL的计算开销至多仅为APIT的1/4。
Abstract: To solve the problem of current range-free localization algorithms in failing to balance localization precision and localization cost well, Signal Strength Assisted Localization (SAL) algorithm is proposed. SAL takes advantage of the discipline that radio signal strength (RSS) monotonically decreased qualitatively as physical distance increasing in open outdoor environment. SAL distinguishes 1-hop anchors into sub-hop resolution beyond connectivity and utilizes this heuristic in-formation about which anchor is closer and which is further to associate location estimation of unknown nodes. Without increasing additional hardware and communication cost, the localization precision is improved effectively and network localization coverage ratio is guaranteed to be 100%. Extensive simulations and platform experiment show that, SAL possesses the advantages of simple implementation of centroid algorithm and high localization precision of APIT. Under random deployment, the localization precision of SAL is better than APIT and the computational cost of SAL is less than a quarter of APIT on average.
