Deeploc: a CNN-LSTM framework for NLOS-aware localization in underwater sensor networks
摘要
Underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) face significant challenges in accurate node localization due to Non-Line-of-Sight (NLOS) conditions caused by multipath propagation, signal attenuation, and environmental factors. In order to solve these issues, this paper proposes a hybrid deep learning framework which integrates CNN, and LSTM networks. This system is able to identify if it is in NLOS or Line of sight condition, it is capable of classifying the type of NLOS it is experiencing, and is able to correct localization errors, all in a single pipeline. The model outperforms existing methods, as shown by experimental results, achieving 92–95% of accuracy and 0.92
