Cooperative Robust Geometric Positioning Algorithm in Wireless Networks

In this paper, we propose a geometric positioning technique for cooperative localization in Wireless Networks. The proposed technique is based on building geometric constraints from radio observables. These constraints are then merged to estimate the true position. In this paper we address situations where blind nodes, due to the lack of radio observables, cooperate to estimate their positions. Compared to other techniques, Monte Carlo simulations illustrate interesting performances in terms of positioning accuracy and computation complexity and runtime.
