IoT-WSN: Survey on Positioning Techniques

Abstract

Recent advances in radio and embedded systems for completing the procedure of location estimation most of the time sensor networks are fully dependent on the distance measurements that is present between the sensor neighbourhood node. Techniques used for the localization can be categorized differently. Techniques used for the measurement of the distance between the wireless sensor nodes, dependent upon the physical means are divided into three broader categories namely Received signal strength (RSS), Angle of Arrival (AOA) and propagation base on time measurements. This paper discusses the most of the approached of WSN and IoT based positioning system.
