Abstract EN
Localization is one of the key techniques in wireless sensor network.
The location estimation methods can be classified into target/source localization and node self-localization.
In target localization, we mainly introduce the energy-based method.
Then we investigate the node self-localization methods.
Since the widespread adoption of the wireless sensor network, the localization methods are different in various applications.
And there are several challenges in some special scenarios.
In this paper, we present a comprehensive survey of these challenges: localization in non-line-of-sight, node selection criteria for localization in energy-constrained network, scheduling the sensor node to optimize the tradeoff between localization performance and energy consumption, cooperative node localization, and localization algorithm in heterogeneous network.
Finally, we introduce the evaluation criteria for localization in wireless sensor network.
