Abstract
Currently, few studies of wireless sensor network node localization algorithm were focused on the reference nodes, but how to choose and place reference nodes has a great influence on the positioning accuracy. In order to quantitatively study this issue, we proved a theorem, which describes the relationship between the placement of reference nodes and whether the node can be located, then the reference nodes placement method was designed. Finally, a reference nodes selection algorithm was proposed based on the condition number of linear equations, so as to improve the accuracy of range-based localization algorithm.
