Abstract
- Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have gained global attention of both, the research community and various application users. Localisation in WSN plays a crucial role in implementing myriad of applications such as healthcare management, disaster management, environment management, and agriculture management. Localization algorithms have become an essential requirement to enhance the effectiveness of WSNs demonstrating relative estimation of sensor node position of anchor nodes with their absolute coordinates. We have done a comprehensive performance evaluation of some feedforward artificial neural networks (FFANNs) training algorithms for developing efficient localization framework in WSNs. The proposed work utilizes the received signal strength observed by anchor nodes by means of some multi-path propagation effects. This paper aims for best training algorithm output while comparing results of different training algorithms. The FFANNs is designed with 3-dimensional inputs and one hidden layer with variable neurons and two outputs. For hidden layer tansigmoid transfer function while for output layer linear transfer function is used. The best training algorithm of FFANNs based model can provide better position accuracy and precision for the future applications. We have analysed and proposed the usage of training algorithms that improves the accuracy and precision of localization algorithms. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness and huge potential in optimizing hardware for localization module in sensor nodes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
