RSS-Based Sensor Localization in the Presence of Unknown Channel Parameters
Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift, 2013

This correspondence studies the received signal strength-based localization problem when the transmit power or path-loss exponent is unknown. The corresponding maximum-likelihood estimator (MLE) poses a difficult nonconvex optimization problem. To avoid the difficulty in solving the MLE, we use suitable approximations and formulate the localization problem as a general trust region subproblem, which can be solved exactly under mild conditions. Simulation results show a promising performance for the proposed methods, which also have reasonable complexities compared to existing approaches.
