Topology-Aware Anchor Node Selection Optimization for Enhanced DV-Hop Localization in IoT

Node localization is a critical challenge in Internet of Things (IoT) applications. The DV-Hop algorithm, which relies on hop counts for localization, assumes that network nodes are uniformly distributed. It estimates actual distances between nodes based on the number of hops. However, in practical...
