The location algorithm based on arrival time difference has high complexity and high system power consumption. When using the traditional TDOA positioning algorithm to locate, we will encounter over-determined nonlinearity of positioning equation, and you need to use iterative method to solve it. Based on this, this paper proposed a hybrid positioning algorithm of TDOA and AOA. Combining the TDOA and AOA information, the problem of solving the iterative positioning equation was simplified successfully, which reduced the complexity of the algorithm and reduced the system power consumption. At the same time, in order to solve the problem of high system power consumption, this paper also proposed the use of Zigbee protocol instead of the traditional Wi-Fi protocol to develop the positioning system, thereby effectively reducing system power consumption, increasing system life and improving system applicability.

Currently, there is an urgent need for indoor positioning technology. Considering the complexity of indoor environment, this paper proposes a new positioning algorithm (N-CHAN) via the analysis of the error of arrival time positioning (TOA) and the channels of S-V model. It overcomes an obvious shortcoming that the accuracy of traditional CHAN algorithm effected by no-line-of-sight (NLOS). Finally, though MATLAB software simulation, we prove that N-CHAN’s superior performance in NLOS in the S-V channel model, which has a positioning accuracy of centimeter-level and can effectively eliminate the influence of NLOS error on positioning accuracy. Moreover, the N-CHAN can effectively improve the positioning accuracy of the system, especially in the conditions of larger NLOS error.

Aiming at the problem of large error in the location algorithm based on MDS-MAP when the distance between mobile industrial robots is not measurable, a mobile industrial robot location algorithm based on improved MDS-MAP is proposed. Experimental simulation shows that the algorithm can achieve good positioning effect. When the distance between mobile industrial robots is measurable, the positioning algorithm based on RSSI achieves good positioning effect. Therefore, this paper discusses the influence of different anchor robot selection methods on the positioning accuracy of RSSI positioning algorithm. The experimental simulation shows that when the selection method of anchoring robot is that the unknown robot with adjacent anchoring robot uses the original anchoring robot for positioning and the unknown robot without anchoring robot uses the adjacent positioning robot as the anchoring robot for positioning, its positioning effect is the best, and it can still achieve good positioning effect when there are few anchoring robots.

The problem of target localization in WSN (wireless sensor network) has received much attention in recent years. However, the performance of traditional localization algorithms will drastically degrade in the non-line of sight (NLOS) environment. Moreover, variable methods have been presented to address this issue, such as the optimization-based method and the NLOS modeling method. The former produces a higher complexity and the latter is sensitive to the propagating environment. Therefore, this paper puts forward a simple NLOS identification and localization algorithm based on the residual analysis, where at least two line-of-sight (LOS) propagating anchor nodes (AN) are required. First, all ANs are grouped into several subgroups, and each subgroup can get intermediate position estimates of target node through traditional localization algorithms. Then, the AN with an NLOS propagation, namely NLOS-AN, can be identified by the threshold based hypothesis test, where the test variable, i.e., the localization residual, is computed according to the intermediate position estimations. Finally, the position of target node can be estimated by only using ANs under line of sight (LOS) propagations. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can successfully identify the NLOS-AN, by which the following localization produces high accuracy so long as there are no less than two LOS-ANs.

The algorithm, by translating the node coordinate, simplifies the solution to double center coordinate matrix, and gets the coordinate inner product matrix; then it uses statistical uncorrelated vectors to reconstruct the coordinates of the inner product matrix and remove the correlation of inner matrix of coordinates caused by the ranging error, so as to reduce the impact of ranging error on subsequent positioning accuracy. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm does not consider the network traffic, bust still has good performance in localization. At last, it is concluded that reducing the amount of communication of sensor nodes is beneficial to prolong the service life of the sensor nodes, thus increasing the lifetime of the whole network.</span>

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are widely used in various fields to monitor and track various targets by gathering information, such as vehicle tracking and environment and health monitoring. The information gathered by the sensor nodes becomes meaningful only if it is known where it was collected from. Considering that multilateral algorithm and MDS algorithm can locate the position of each node, we proposed a localization algorithm combining the merits of these two approaches, which is called MA-MDS, to reduce the accumulation of errors in the process of multilateral positioning algorithm and improve the nodes’ positioning accuracy in WSNs. It works in more robust fashion for noise sparse networks, even with less number of anchor nodes. In the MDS positioning phase of this algorithm, the Prussian Analysis algorithm is used to obtain more accurate coordinate transformation. Through extensive simulations and the repeatable experiments under diverse representative networks, it can be confirmed that the proposed algorithm is more accurate and more efficient than the state-of-the-art algorithms.

The three-dimensional positioning algorithm has become a hot research direction in wireless sensor networks localization algorithms, however the existing 3D positioning algorithms have general shortcomings, such as high complexity, low positioning accuracy, great energy consumption. Aiming at the existing problems of 3D localization algorithm, we propose an decentralized 3D positioning algorithm based on RSSI ranging and free ranging mechanism. The algorithm firstly use measured RSSI to establish beacon node neighborhood. Then the method adopts regional division to obtain initial location information for unknown nodes. Finally, the method use the iterative optimization process to achieve a position information updates. Simulation results demonstrate that proposed algorithm is feasible and has better localization accuracy.
