description | Determining an optimal emitting source location based on the time of arrival
(TOA) measurements is one of the important problems in Wireless Sensor
Networks (WSNs). The nonlinear least-squares (NLS) estimation technique is
employed to obtain the location of an emitting source. This optimization
problem has been formulated by the minimization of the sum of squared
residuals between estimated and measured data as the objective function. This
paper presents a hybridization of Genetic Algorithm (GA) for the
determination of the global optimum solution with the local search
Newton-Raphson (NR) method. The corresponding Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB)
on the localization errors is derived, which gives a lower bound on the
variance of any unbiased estimator. Simulation results under different
signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) conditions show that the proposed hybrid Genetic
Algorithm-Newton-Raphson (GA-NR) improves the accuracy and efficiency of the
optimal solution compared to the regular GA. [Project of the Serbian Ministry
