A method and apparatus for determining the location of a node within a communication system is provided herein. During operation, reference nodes ( 105 ) having known locations are utilized to locate "blind" nodes ( 104 ) whose location is to be determined. More particularly, a blind node ( 104 ) wishing to determine its location will measure a plurality of path losses between itself and a plurality of reference nodes ( 105 ). These reference nodes' locations will then be mathematically weighted by the path loss between these reference nodes ( 105 ) and the blind node ( 104 ). The location of the blind node ( 104 ) is a sum of the mathematically weighted reference nodes' locations.
