Wireless sensor networks have been proposed, at an early stage in their development, to become a useful measurement technology for environmental localization and detection such as forest fire detection. This report aims to utilize Matlab program to simulate different situation to test the effective of the WSN algorithm and also include a result program to give the accurate target range using the hop count data obtained from the demo part. After getting a large number of data in the experiments, an analysis will be made to discuss the effects of the parameters, which are input differently. With the help of the analysis in the experiments, the actual environment will also be discussed to achieve an effective and economical method of WSN type to process the localization detection.
