A Research Cluster based Scheme for Node Positioning in Indoor Environment

2019 International Journal of Engineering and Advanced Technology  
Location estimation in Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is mandatory to achieve high network efficiency. Identifying the positions of sensors is an uphill task as monitoring nodes are involved in estimation and localization. Clustered Positioning for Indoor Environment (CPIE) is proposed for estimating the position of the sensors using a Cluster Head (CH) based mechanism. The CH estimates the number of neighbor nodes in each floor of the indoor environment. It sends the requests to the cluster

The performance of the proposed scheme is analyzed for both stable and mobile conditions by varying the number of floors. Experimental results show that the propounded scheme offers better network efficiency and reduces delay and localization error
