The localization strategy is broadly utilized in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) to detect the present location of the sensor nodes. A WSN comprises of multiple sensor nodes, which makes the employment of GPS on each sensor node costly, and GPS does not give accurate localization outcomes in an indoor environment. The process of configuring location reference on each sensor node manually is also not feasible in the case of a large dense network. Hence, this proposal plans to develop an intelligent model for developing localization pattern in WSN with a group of anchor nodes, rest nodes, and target nodes. The initial step of the proposed node localization model is the selection of the optimal location of anchor nodes towards the target nodes using the hybrid optimization algorithm by concerning the constraints like the distance between the nodes. The second step is to optimally determine the location of the rest node by reference to the anchor nodes using the same hybrid optimization algorithm. Here, the weight has to be determined for each anchor sensor node based on its Received Signal Strength (RSS), and RSS threshold value with the assistance of Neural Network. The hybrid optimization algorithms check the direction to where the concerned node has to be moved by merging the beneficial concepts of two renowned optimization algorithms named as Rider Optimization Algorithm (ROA), and Chicken Swarm Optimization Algorithm (CSO) to solve the localization problem in WSN. The newly developed hybrid algorithm is termed as Rooster Updated Attacker-based ROA (RUA-ROA). Finally, the comparative evaluation indicates a significant improvement in the proposed localization model by evaluating the convergence and statistical analysis.
