L/F-CIPS: Collaborative indoor positioning for smartphones with lateration and fingerprinting

Ver documento

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:The demand for indoor location-based services and the wide availability of mobile devices have triggered research into new positioning systems able to provide accurate indoor positions using smartphones. However, accurate solutions require a complex implementation and long-term maintenance of their infrastructure. Collaborative systems may help to alleviate these drawbacks. In this paper, we propose a smartphone-based collaborative architecture using neural networks and received signal strength, which exploits the built-in wireless communication technologies in smartphones and the collaboration between devices to improve traditional positioning systems without additional deployment. Experiments are carried out in two real-world scenarios, demonstrating that our proposed architecture enhances the position accuracy of traditional indoor positioning systems.
