Abstract :
The promise of location-aware applications has led to the design and development of various localization schemes. In this paper we propose a distributed localization scheme for nodes with emphasis on power measurements (RSSI) using UWB. The localization algorithm is distributed and follows an indirect approach where nodes get to determine their location with the help of their neighbors. The UWB based scheme proposed is robust and scalable
