Abstract(in English) This report describes a localization method using a mobile anchor node in wireless sensor networks. This method localizes the positions of sensor nodes by using the nature of a perpendicular bisector of chord passing through the center of a circle. We consider that the communication range of a sensor node is a circle and the center of a circle indicates the position of the sensor node. The point where the mobile anchor node broadcasts beacon is called an anchor point. The chord is composed of an anchor-point group. This method localizes the position by using two anchor-point groups that the sensor node can acquire for the first time. Therefore, localization error will increase if this method localizing the sensor node with a group affected by shadowing or area boundaries. In this study, we propose a selection algorithm of two anchor-point groups to suppress the localization error. Simulation results show that the proposed method can suppress both the localization error and its standard deviation.
