Detailed Documentation

Multidimensional Scaling (MDS) localization using Direction of Arrival (DOA) algorithms in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) holds substantial application value for DOA-based positioning. This algorithm achieves target localization in sensor networks by leveraging DOA information between nodes through mathematical optimization. The MDS-DOA approach represents an effective methodology that enhances positioning accuracy and reliability in sensor networks. Implementation typically involves constructing a distance matrix from angular measurements, followed by eigenvalue decomposition to recover relative node positions. Key functions may include angle-of-arrival calculation using MUSIC or ESPRIT algorithms, and MDS optimization for coordinate reconstruction.
