Performance and accuracy test of a WiFi indoor positioning system
-
Guenther Retscher
Location based-services and personal navigation require the location determination of a user not only in outdoor environments but also indoor. For indoor location already established wireless infrastructure such as WiFi (Wireless Fidelity) or WLAN (Wireless Local Area Networks) can be employed. This approach has the advantage that no costly hardware installations are necessary inside a building if WiFi is already available. The IMST GmbH has developed a software framework called "ipos" for indoor positioning technologies. The principle of the developed platform and the performance of the location determination using WiFi in a localization testbed of IMST GmbH are presented in this paper.
