- Abstract
- In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), irregularly deployed nodes can significantly degrade the performance of the localization system. In this paper, we propose a novel localization scheme for the irregularly deployed WSNs. The basic approach is to control the transmission of location messages by using the fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering algorithm. Next, each node selects its localization method according to the node density. Simulation studies show that the proposed approach can enhance the localization accuracy, while reducing the retransmission messages in the irregularly deployed WSNs. (C) 2012 Elsevier GmbH.
