Description
Summary:The rapid progress of wireless communication and the availability of many small-sized, light-weighted and low-cost communication and computing devices nowadays have greatly impacted the research and development of wireless sensor networks. Target localization using wireless sensor network has attracted much attention for its comparable low cost and great number of possible applications with monitoring and targeting purposes. This paper will discuss the characteristics of wireless sensor network three dimensional grid-based localization techniques in details from the simulation results obtained from different models. The discussion will be carried out in both ideal cases and the actual cases with localization error. The robustness of the implemented algorithm will also be justified based on the comparison of the simulation results between these two categories.
