Accurate Localization in Wireless Sensor Networks in the Presence of Cross Technology Interference
Localization of mobile nodes in a wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is an active area of research. In this paper, we present a novel RSSI based localization algorithm for 802.15.4 (ZigBee) based WSNs. We propose and implement a novel range based localization algorithm to minimize cross technology interference operating in the same band. The goal is to minimize the mean square error of the localization algorithm. Hardware implementation of the algorithm is in agreement with ideal (no interference) simulation results where an accuracy of less than 0.5m has been achieved.
