Abstract
Indoor localization has been extensively investigated over the last few decades, especially in the industrial area of wireless sensor networks. For indoor positioning, many techniques have been proposed over the Wi-Fi signal’s deployment. Wi-Fi Received Signal Strength (RSS) fingerprinting approach especially the deterministic algorithms have received much attention. However, as the deterministic algorithms use RSS of the test point (TP) by ignoring the other TPs, two or more TPs will take the same location while physically far apart, and the reverse can also be true. Thus, to improve positioning accuracy, this study proposes Wi-Fi RSS fingerprint based simultaneous indoor localization (SIL). The proposed approach was tested on the data collected from Huazhong University of Science and Technology teaching buildings. Experimental results show error reduction upto 9.8%, and 13.2% in MDE (Mean Distance Error) and standard deviation, respectively.
