The unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) network has gained vigorous evolution in recent decades by virtue of its advanced nature, and UAV-based localization techniques have been extensively applied in a variety of fields. In most applications, the data captured by a UAV are only useful when associated with its geographic position. Efficient and low-cost positioning is of great significance for the development of UAV-aided technology. In this paper, we investigate an effective three-dimensional (3D) localization approach for multiple UAVs and propose a flipping ambiguity avoidance optimization algorithm. Specifically, beacon UAVs take charge of gaining global coordinates and collecting distance measurements from GPS-denied UAVs. We adopt a semidefinite programming (SDP)-based approach to estimate the global position of the target UAVs. Furthermore, when high noise interference causes missing distance pairs and measurement errors, an improved gray wolf optimization (I-GWO) algorithm is utilized to improve the positioning accuracy. Simulation results show that the proposed approach is superior to a number of alternative approaches.
