Abstract：

Secure　localization　in　wireless　sensor　networks　(WSNs)　has　received　a　great　deal　of　attention　with　the　increasing　applications　of　wireless　sensors.　Security　issues　of　localization　in　WSNs　need　to　take　into　account　attacks　from　both　external　and　internal　nodes.　In　this　paper,　we　propose　a　secure　localization　scheme　based　on　trust　evaluation　called　trust　based　secure　localization　(TBSL)　to　evaluate　the　trust　of　beacon　nodes　through　detecting　the　identity　and　the　behavior　of　such　node　and　using　the　credible　position　information　for　localization　in　WSNs.　Simulation　results　show　that　our　proposed　scheme　can　improve　the　accuracy　of　localization　in　a　hostile　environment.　©　2011　IEEE.
