Abstract

In a Wireless Sensor Networks, localization techniques are needed to identify the exact position of an event. In this paper, we proposed Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) based target localization algorithm in a three-dimensional wireless sensor networks. In the proposed scheme, distance between anchor and target nodes are calculated by adding correction factor with hop size of an anchor node. The concept of fuzzy logic-based edge weight calculation is introduced to improve the localization accuracy. Simulation result shows that proposed scheme achieves less localization error and better accuracy as compared with existing localization technique.
