The traditional range-based techniques and recent range-free localization schemes are not well competent for localization in mobile sensor networks, while the probabilistic approach of Bayesian filtering with particle-based density representations provides a comprehensive solution to such localization problem. Monte Carlo localization is a Bayesian filtering method that approximates the mobile node's location by a set of weighted particles. In this paper, an enhanced Monte Carlo localization algorithm-Extended Monte Carlo Localization (Ext-MCL) is proposed, i.e., the traditional Monte Carlo localization algorithm is improved and extended to make it suitable for the practical wireless network environment where the radio propagation model is irregular. Simulation results show the proposal gets better localization accuracy and higher localizable node number than previously proposed Monte Carlo localization schemes not only for ideal radio model, but also for irregular one.展开更多
