A distributed localization algorithm for determining the position of nodes in a structured wireless sensor network is proposed. Details regarding the implementation of such algorithm are also discussed. Experiments were performed in a testbed area containing anchor and blind nodes deployed in it to characterize the pathloss exponent and to determine the localization error of the algorithm. The algorithm is shown to have localization error of 0.74m which is better than4.73m shown by centroid algorithm for three anchor nodes.
