Abstract:	The invention relates to method for determining the position of a non-anchor node in an ad-hoc network comprising a number of non-anchor nodes and at least one anchor node having a predetermined location, said method comprising the steps of: determining the distance from a first non-anchor node to a second adjacent non-anchor node or adjacent anchor node; retrieving information about the location of the second node; calculating the location of the first non-anchor node based on the retrieved location of the second node and the determined distance from the first node to the second node.
