Wireless LAN Based Indoor Positioning System WiPS and Its Simulation

The wireless LAN(Wi-Fi) infrastructure is widely used and many location-aware systems and services are researched. In this paper, wireless LAN based indoor positioning system WiPS is proposed. WiPS uses wireless LAN technology to measure the location of each mobile terminal. Mobile terminals equip only wireless LAN device to communicate and measure its location, so it can be made without any ad...

Overview of Wireless LAN based Indoor Positioning Systems

Indoor Positioning Techniques Based on Wireless LAN

As well as delivering high speed internet, Wireless LAN (WLAN) can be used as an effective indoor positioning system. It is competitive in terms of both accuracy and cost compared to similar systems. To date, several signal strength based techniques have been proposed. Researchers at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) have developed several innovative implementations of WLAN positioning s...

Use of Directional Information in Wireless LAN based indoor positioning

Wireless LAN (WLAN) positioning has received much attention recently and location fingerprinting has been widely accepted as an effect method. In WLAN positioning, the mobile user’s (MU) orientation has a significant impact on the received signal strength from an access point. Many researchers have noticed this impact and considered it when the fingerprint database is generated. In this paper, ...

A wireless LAN-based indoor positioning technology

Context-aware computing is an emerging computing paradigm that can provide new or improved services by exploiting user context information. In this paper, we present a wireless-localarea-network-based (WLAN-based) indoor positioning technology. The wireless device deploys a positiondetermination model to gather location information from collected WLAN signals. A model-based signal distribution ...
