Abstract
As Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) has become a
key technology for different types of smart environment, nodes
localization in WSN has arisen as a very challenging problem
in the research community. Most of the applications for WSNs
necessitate a priory known nodes positions. In this paper, we
propose an algorithm for three dimensional (3D) nodes
localization in surface WSN based on multidimensional scaling
(MDS) technique. Using extensive simulations, we investigated
in details our approach regarding different network topologies,
various network parameters and performance issues. The
results from simulations show that our algorithm produces
small localization error and outperforms MDS-MAP in terms
of accuracy.
