Low Power Locating Algorithms For Wireless Sensors Network

Wireless sensor network is a novel technology about acquiring and processing information. This paper studies the problem of determining the node locations in wireless sensor network and brings forward a new locating algorithms of nodes, which requires some fake nodes that know themselves position information in advance, then realizes positioning node by clock-locating algorithms. Simulation shows that the algorithm is feasible. It can be used for wireless sensors network application.
