Abstract :
This paper presents an overview of infrastructure-based localization schemes for indoor wireless sensor networks. Five areas were identified that indiscriminately delineate one sensor network from another, as well as eight classification properties for the different localization schemes. Finally, we present a novel localization methodology that does not require the sensor node to perform any on-board calculations in order to infer its location, and its associated metrics.
