Abstract: A type of energy optimization localization method with mobile beacon is proposed in this paper. Traverse point of the mobile beacon is marked with the help of the optimum deployment model and the clockwise spiral-like moving path with fixed step size is also established. According to the moving path and the localization time, energy consumption of the network could be estimated and we could also give the sleep scheduling strategy for the node to be localized. Simulation results show that this method could not only promote the accuracy and success rate of localization, but also reduce the energy consumption.
