Abstract: As a classical non-ranging algorithm for wireless sensor network node localization, DV-Hop localization algorithm has advantages under the uniform distribution of nodes, whereas the nodes are nonuniform distribution, there is a large deviation in the positioning results. In response to this situation, many improved algorithms have been proposed such as Anchors Filtering DV-Hop (AFDV-Hop), which is qualified by screening of the unknown node localization anchor nodes. Compared with the conventional DV-Hop algorithm, the positioning accuracy of AFDV-Hop algorithm is improved to some extent. The method for the calculation of uniformity is more simple,  but the degree of improvement algorithm is not obvious. In this paper, the anchor node selection algorithm and uniformity measurement methods are improved. Simulation results indicate that the improvement of the node positioning deviation is more significant with the increase of the nodes nonuniformity.
