Range-Free Localization

Advances in micro-electro-mechanical systems have triggered an enormous interest in wireless sensor networks (WSN). WSN are formed by large numbers of densely deployed nodes enabled with sensing and actuating capabilities. These nodes have very limited processing and memory capabilities, limited energy resources and it is envisioned that they will be mass produced, to reduce costs.
