In this paper, a new approach for the positioning(localization) of multi-node systems is presented. Each nodeincluding the beacon node contains two types of sensors: onefor the distance sensing and the other type is forcommunication. The main idea of our proposed approach is touse the control of beacon to construct anodes' tree which isgoing to be used later by the nodes to know the paths in whichthe information will flow. During the tree construction, theidentities of nodes will be known. Every node except thebeacon will use the information obtained from its previousneighbor in the tree to find its own location and orientation.Several simulations using visual basic 2012 are implemented todiscern the performance of this algorithm.
