This paper proposes a novel localization algorithm for wireless sensor network (WSN). Accurate localization is very important for WSN. WSN localization problem is sometimes regarded as an optimization problem. Plant growth simulation algorithm (PGSA) is a kind of new intelligent optimization algorithm, which is intelligent simulation of plant growth in natural way. In addition to the common characteristics of intelligent algorithms, PGSA show robustness and provides a global optimal solution, etc. In this paper, further enhancement of the algorithm by adding the plant root of adaptive backlight function to effectively improve the computing speed and localization precision has been reported. Comparing this algorithm with simulated annealing algorithm (SAA), simulation resultsshow that this algorithm has a higher and more consistent localization precision and faster computational speed.
