Abstract

This chapter discusses localization in WSNs specifically focusing on the physical limitations imposed by the wireless channel. Location awareness and different methods for localization are discussed. Particular attention is given to indoor TOA based ranging and positioning systems. Various aspects of WSN localization are addressed and performance results for cooperative schemes are presented.
