Nodes localization plays an important role in applications of wireless sensor networks. In this paper, a localization scheme with a mobile anchor using a hybrid algorithm (ABC-GA) which combines Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm with the advantages of Genetic Algorithm (GA) is proposed. The localization scheme determines location of unknown node by the mobile anchor. It has high accuracy without any additional requirements for the hardware of unknown node. The core problem of the scheme is to find the shortest path to traverse all unknown nodes by the proposed hybrid algorithm. Simulation results show that ABC-GA hybrid algorithm has high convergence rate and strong global search capability, and the accuracy of localization scheme is satisfactory.
