Location information is always useful in wireless sensor networks (WSN). The precision of localization is crucial for some specific applications. Methods for node localization in WSN usually rely on the measurements of received strength or time-of-flight of an incoming signal. The quality of these measurements always has great influence on the precision of localization. In this paper, special emphasis is put on the error analysis for distance measurement between WSN nodes. Error is broken down into three parts, namely, systematic error, random error, and gross error. Gross error is highlighted and methods for removing gross error are discussed. Dixon test is recommended for gross error removal in data preprocessing phase before localization computation in WSN. |
