<p>Wireless sensor networks (WSN), as a new method of information collection and processing, has a wide range of applications. Since the acquired data must be bound with the location information of sensor nodes, the sensor localization is one of the supporting technologies of wireless sensor networks. However, the common localization algorithms, such as APIT algorithm and DV-Hop algorithm, have the following problems: 1) the localization accuracy of beacon nodes is not high; 2) low coverage rate in sparse environment. In this paper, an enhanced hybrid 3D localization algorithm is designed with combining the advantages of APIT algorithm and DV-Hop algorithm. The proposed hybrid algorithm can improve the localization accuracy of the beacon nodes in dense environments by reducing the triangles in the triangle interior point test (PIT) and selecting good triangles. In addition, the algorithm can combine the advantages of APIT algorithm and DV-Hop algorithm localization algorithm to calculate the unknown node coordinates, and also improve the location coverage of the beacon nodes in sparse environment. Simulation results show that the proposed hybrid algorithm can effectively improve the localization accuracy of beacon nodes in the dense environment and the location coverage of beacon nodes in sparse environment.</p>

Localization has been a major challenge in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), especially for the applications requiring the accurate position of the sensed information. In this paper, we propose a new localization algorithm based on the Centroid algorithm and the DV-Hop algorithm to improve the positioning accuracy without increasing any extra hardware for sensor nodes. This paper firstly analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of the centroid algorithm and the DV-Hop algorithm. Then we put forward an iterated hybrid algorithm, which is comprised of three steps. Firstly, obtaining the initial location of each unknown node by using the centroid algorithm; secondly, computing the distances among each unknown node to the anchor nodes based on the DV-Hop algorithm; finally, Taylor Series Expansion (TSE) algorithm is utilized to estimate coordinate of each unknown node. Simulation results show that our iterated hybrid algorithm has better positioning accuracy.
