Kernel-Based Positioning in Wireless Local Area Networks

Kushki, Azadeh, Plataniotis, Konstantinos N., Venetsanopoulos, Anastasios N.·2007·IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing

Abstract

The recent proliferation of Location-Based Services (LBSs) has necessitated the development of effective indoor positioning solutions. In such a context, Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) positioning is a particularly viable solution in terms of hardware and installation costs due to the ubiquity of WLAN infrastructures. This paper examines three aspects of the problem of indoor WLAN positioning using received signal strength (RSS). First, we show that, due to the variability of RSS features over space, a spatially localized positioning method leads to improved positioning results. Second, we explore the problem of access point (AP) selection for positioning and demonstrate the need for further research in this area. Third, we present a kernelized distance calculation algorithm for comparing RSS observations to RSS training records. Experimental results indicate that the proposed system leads to a 17 percent (0.56 m) improvement over the widely used K-nearest neighbor and histogram-based methods.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
