Abstract

This paper reviews different approaches to node localisation discovery in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) and addresses issues of localisation by describing a variety of localisation techniques and theirs strengths and drawbacks. The overview of the existing algorithms proposed for the improvement of localisation in WSNs is also presented. To understand how the performance of localisation techniques is evaluated, several evaluation metrics are described and the comparative results verified via Matlab simulations.
