A 3D indoor positioning system based on common visible LEDs

A Visible Light Based Indoor Positioning System

In this paper, we propose a novel indoor localization scheme, Lightitude, by exploiting ubiquitous visible lights, which are necessarily and densely deployed in almost all indoor environments. We unveil two phenomena of lights available for positioning: 1) the light strength varies according to different light sources, which can be easily detected by light sensors embedded in COTS devices (e.g....

Asynchronous indoor positioning system based on visible light communications

Indoor positioning has become an attractive research topic within the past two decades. However, no satisfying solution has been found with consideration of both accuracy and system complexity. Recently, research on visible light communications (VLC) offer new opportunities in realizing accurate indoor positioning with relatively simple system configuration. An indoor positioning system based o...

A Review On Map-Based Indoor Positioning Techniques

In this study, a review of indoor positioning methods based on indoor environment models is presented. Researchers introduce a variety of methods in this field. The purpose of this study is to present different methods and evaluate them. Each method is described from the point of view of the use of the spatial models. In the end, methods advantages and disadvantages have been introduced. Due to...

Lumicast TM : A high accuracy indoor positioning system based on visible light communication

An Indoor Positioning System Based on Wi-Fi for Energy Management in Smart Buildings

To offer indoor services to occupants in the context of smart buildings, it is necessary to consider information concerning to the identity and location of the occupants. This paper proposes an indoor positioning system (IPS) based on Wi-Fi fingerprint and K-nearest neighbors (KNN) method. The positioning of a mobile device (MD) using Wi-Fi technology involves online and offline phases. In this...
