Indoor localization for wireless sensor network and dv-hop

Abstract

Indoor positioning is a significant problem for many work areas. Indoor positioning due to breakage and disappearance of signals due to walls and other obstacles in indoor requires a different solution to the outdoor Therefore, the GPS, which is successful for outdoor positioning, can not work in the same way as internal positioning. Positioning can be done by using anchor nodes that have their own position information located in wireless sensor networks In this study, DV-hop method, one of these methods, has been examined. It has been investigated in three different methods presented as an alternative to the classical Dv-Hop method and its advantages and disadvantages are discussed.
