Detailed comments Provide detailed written comments on the paper. In general, your main aim as a reviewer is to help improve the paper. Be as specific as you can when you point out errors or problems. Suggest concrete improvements whenever possible. Your review should cover the following three aspects. Use the suggested guidelines in composing your review for each aspect. There are some (mostly editorial) points in the paper that could be improved. Additionally, there are also several aspects of the presentation of the paper, which should be improved. - Remark about style: Though this is a highly subjective remark, one could consider choosing a less colourful style at some parts of the text. One example, which would probably disturb some readers used to a less emotional, style of articles: page 1, "In the missions which have to look into a big region, the sensor network is able to extend tentacles to the wild open environments, ...'' - Last paragraph page one: Obviously there is a section label missing, I assume the section has been removed and the outline was not updated. That should definitely be fixed. - Some grammar mistakes, very common are missing "s" when the reader is told about general concepts, e.g.: Page one, first paragraph: "..is a primary issue during the design OF (missing) the (should be dropped) sensor networks(!) and applications(!)." Next sentence: "..in fixed networks(!), ..", etc. - Sometimes plural is used as singular and vice versa. E.g.: Page 2, end of first paragraph: "Solutions of this type is (should be are) well known as beacon less solution". End of Section 3: "..it claims 50 valid samples is (should be are) sufficient to perform localisation.." - Section and subsection headings should be capitalised (coherently). In the paper, some section headings are capitalised, some are not. - Inconsistency: You write "beacon-based" with a - 'dash', but "beacon less" without in the same construction, e.g. "beacon less method". - The figures in the paper should have been commented each using a sentence or two, describing the main ideas. Only giving the figures without explanation is not very informative. In fact, it leaves the work of understanding them to the reader, which slows down the speed of reading (and also frustrates the reader). - Two typos in references (which I found, there might be more): 1. ``Attack-resistant location estimation in sensor networks'' by Liu, D. and Ning, P. and Du, W.K. There is a ``s'' missing in the title and there is also a co-author missing. References should always contain the names of all authors. 2. ``Localized algorithms in wireless ad-hoc networks: location discovery and sensor exposure.'' Again, ``s'' in networks is missing, also one of the authors.
