Neural Network-based Indoor Localization in WSN Environments

چکیده
With the advancement of wireless technology even more wireless sensor network (WSN) applications are gaining ground. Their field of application is increasingly widening. This paper examines the WSN application which allows indoor localization based on the Fingerprint (FP) method. The communication between the modules was monitored during the experiment whereby the received radio signal strength indicator (RSSI) values from 5 modules were recorded by a mobile sensor. The received data was used for training of the feed-forward type of neural network. Through use of the trained neural network and the measured RSSI values an indoor localization was realized in a real environment. The neural network-based localization method is analyzed applying the cumulative distribution function (CDF). For the reference model the well-known weighted k-nearest neighbour (WkNN) method was used.

Real-time, indoor user localization, although limited to the current user position, is of great practical importance in many Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) applications. Moreover an accurate prediction of the user next position (even with a short advice) may open a number of new AAL applications that could timely provide the right services in the right place even before the user request them.

متن کاملOn improving APIT algorithm for better localization in WSN
In Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), localization algorithms could be range-based or range-free. The Approximate Point in Triangle (APIT) is a range-free approach. We propose modification of the APIT algorithm and refer as modified-APIT. We select suitable triangles with appropriate distance between anchors to reduce PIT test errors (edge effect and non-uniform placement of neighbours) in APIT a...
