Abstract : Localization of sensor node is imperative in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) as data gathered at the user end become meaningless without location information of the node. In this work, impact of anchor position errors on WSN localization using Mobile Anchor Positioning (MAP) Algorithm has been investigated by evaluating two deployment strategies. In deployment I sensor nodes are randomly spread in the entire chosen area (1000 χ 1000) whilst deployment II has nodes spread in the central region of the chosen area. Firstly, MAP Algorithm employing three anchor nodes is investigated for the two deployments. To study the impact of mobile anchors on MAP, anchor number is increased to four and the two deployments are investigated again. Further, this work also investigates the effect of anchor position errors on localization accuracy of sensor nodes. Error term is modelled using Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) Model. Performance metrices considered for validation are Average Root Mean Square Error and Execution time. © 2017 IEEE.
