Abstract
Documents in the Airis a middleware system that allows placing and retrieving virtual objects or documents at different indoor locationswithout requiring a positioning system. It consists of an Android application and an intranet or cloud server, and only makes use of existing WiFi or BLE infrastructure to produce location specific signatures. We evaluate the performance of the system and study signature behavior with respect to: WiFi network characteristics, dissimilarity and real distances, and various collection methods. Using our own measurements, as well as publicly available data from several buildings, we show that the document retrieval process is accurate under conditions of signature impairment, signature aging, reduced AP density, and heterogeneous devices.
