The Optimal Positioning Algorithm Based on RSSI of WiFi
نویسندگان
چکیده
The positioning system based on RSSI is extremely affected by the multipath transmission medium, the signal transmission and shadow. Even changing the angle of the antenna is likely to affect the ranging accuracy. In order to solve the problems above, this paper proposes an indoor optimal positioning algorithm based on Wi-Fi signal strength. It introduces positioning evaluation function, using the optimal algorithm to get a set of path loss exponent to improve the positioning accuracy. Experiment results show that the algorithm can obtain higher positioning accuracy without priori information of indoor environment or additional hardware investment.

RSSI-based Algorithm for Indoor Localization
Wireless node localization is one of the key technologies for wireless sensor networks. Outdoor localization can use GPS, AGPS (Assisted Global Positioning System) [6], but in buildings like supermarkets and underground parking, the accuracy of GPS and even AGPS will be greatly reduced. Since Indoor localization requests higher accuracy, using GPS or AGPS for indoor localization is not feasible...

Various methods have been developed for indoor localisation using WLAN signals. Algorithms that fingerprint the Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) of WiFi for different locations can achieve tracking accuracies of the order of a few meters. RSSI fingerprinting suffers though from two main limitations: first, as the signal environment changes, so does the fingerprint database, which requ...

متن کاملD-Log: A WiFi Log-based differential scheme for enhanced indoor localization with single RSSI source and infrequent sampling rate
Currently, large amounts of Wi-Fi access logs are collected in diverse indoor environments, but cannot be widely used for fine-grained spatio-temporal analysis due to coarse positioning. We present a Log-based Differential (D-Log) scheme for post-hoc localization based on differentiated location estimates obtained from large-scale Access Point (AP) logs of WiFi connectivity traces, which can be...
