| 总结: | In recent years, there has been considerable interest in robust range-based Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) localization due to the increasing importance of accurately locating sensors in various WSN applications. However, achieving precise localization is often hampered by the presence of outliers or underestimations in range measurements, particularly when employing the RSS technique. To tackle these issues, we introduce a Two-Step Localization (namely, the SelMin approach). In the initial phase, the approach utilizes Second-Order Cone Programming (SOCP) to minimize distance discrepancies. It does this by comparing a reference Euclidean Distance Matrix (EDM) with a weighted one derived from imprecise distances between sensor nodes. In the subsequent phase, a heuristic method is employed to identify a specific number of imprecise distances, referred to as outliers, that will be disregarded in the first phase, and this two-phase process continues iteratively. The experimental results demonstrate that the SelMin strategy performs better than the DSCL method when evaluated using the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) metric. This superior performance is maintained even in challenging conditions, such as when there are many outliers (i.e, around 30$$\%$$) in the network. This indicates that SelMin is a reliable and robust choice for these environments. |
