Improvement of location accuracy by adding nodes to ad-hoc networks

AJ Weiss, JS Picard - Wireless Personal Communications, 2008 - Springer
We discuss the effect of adding nodes on the location accuracy of Ad-Hoc networks. All
results are obtained by analyzing the Cramér-Rao Lower bound. We show that for planar …
