Abstract
In wireless sensor network (WSN)-based rigid body localization (RBL) systems, the non-line-of-sight (NLOS) propagation of the wireless signals leads to severe performance deterioration. This paper focuses on the RBL problem under the NLOS environment based on the time of arrival (TOA) measurement between the sensors fixed on the rigid body and the anchors, where the NLOS parameters are estimated to improve the RBL performance. Without any prior information about the NLOS environment, the highly non-linear and non-convex RBL problem is transformed into a difference of convex (DC) programming, which can be solved by using the concave–convex procedure (CCCP) to determine the position of the rigid body sensors and the NLOS parameters. To avoid error accumulation, the obtained NLOS parameters are utilized to refine the localization performance of the rigid body sensors. Then, the accurate position and the orientation of the rigid body in two-Dimensional space are obtained according to the relative deflection angle method. To reduce the computational complexity, the singular value decomposition (SVD) method is employed to solve the problem in three-Dimensional space. Simulation results show that the proposed method can effectively improve the performance of the rigid body localization based on the wireless sensor network in NLOS environment.
