    Abstract:

    In order to improve the node localization precision of RangeFreebased DVHop localization algorithm in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) with randomly distributed nodes and dynamic topology, the improved algorithm is proposed. After analyzing the DVHop algorithm, considering the obvious errors of the estimated node coordinates calculated by Polygonbased method in traditional DVHop algorithm, the numerical iterative algorithm is constructed by employing Taylor series expansion, and simulation studies for the improved DVHop algorithm are conducted. The selection criteria for the convergent threshold of iterative step is determined, the localization performance of the improved localization algorithm is analyzed by comparing with the traditional DVHop algorithm under the same condition of selected convergent threshold and simulation parameters, while the calculation amount and convergence rate of the improved algorithm are also measured by the statistic iterations. The simulation results show that by selecting reasonable iterative threshold values and appropriately increasing calculation amount for node localization, the improved DVHop localization algorithm greatly improves the localization precision and the error stability, which is feasible for node localization in WSNs with both randomly distributed nodes and dynamic topology.
