چکیده
Abstract—In today’s era position of any outdoor element can be determine precisely using GPS. But in the indoor environment like house, colleges, underground construction site GPS does not work well. As now-a-days all house and colleges are equipped with Wi-Fi access point, precise position can be found out using Wi-Fi using method name Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI). A series of experiment were carried out at different place which gives position with maximum error of 5m.
