Improved DV-Hop Positioning Algorithm Based on Modifying Hop Counts
基于跳数修正的DV-Hop定位的改进算法

DV-Hop algorithm is one of the most classic range-free localization algorithms in wireless sensor networks.In order to enhance the localization accuracy of the DV-Hop algorithm, this paper introduced two terms of the previous node and Total HopSize, and designed an improved MHDV-Hop algorithm. In the improved algorithm, the correction factor of unknown node to beacon node hops is calculated based on the number of PN. It not only dons't change the positioning process of the DV-Hop algorithm at lower ratio of beacon nodes and without additional hardware support, but also greatly improves the localization accuracy.
