Outline • Introduction • The Directed Position Estimation(DPE) Algorithm • Performance Evaluation • Conclusions
Introduction • The techniques used to identify the position of each sensor node are central to such location-aware operations.
Introduction • In this work, the authors propose a different recursive localization system • a node can estimate its position using only two reference neighbors • work in a low-density sensor network • fewer errors and resources than the triangulation, trilateration, or multilateration methods.

Residual Error • Quantifying the Position Error • The residual error can be used as a measure of confidence in the estimated position. The residual error for an estimated position is defined as
Performance Evaluation • Communication range for all nodes:15 m • Number of beacon nodes: 4 • Sensor field:70 m × 70 m • Scenario 1 • The beacon structure is deployed at the center of the sensor field • Scenario 2 • The beacon structure is deployed at the border

Conclusions • In this paper, the authors propose a DPE algorithm • a node can estimate its position using only two reference neighbors • work in a low-density sensor network • fewer errors and resources than the triangulation, trilateration, or multilateration methods.
