NLOS Identification and Correction Based on Multidimensional Scaling and Quasi-Accurate Detection

In wireless sensor networks, most of the previous NLOS identification is based on error estimation model established by raw data. In this paper, we propose a method of NLOS identification named NIMQ based on multidimensional scaling (MDS) and Quasi-Accurate detection (QUAD). In this method, we first...
