Abstract

Localization problems of the WSNs (wireless sensor networks)geostationary nodes are studied,and the localization algorithm (Fast and Rough Nodes Location Algorithm) based on the communication power mediation for geostationary nodes by receiving the localization information from anchor nodes is presented.The localization estimate of localized nodes is executed in lesser field for higher accuracy.The simulation results show that the algorithm has a small amount of communication, high positioning accuracy, balancing payloads, and is suitable for random deployment.
