Abstract

In indoor positioning system based on fingerprint, the traditional fingerprint database construction method consumes much manpower and time cost. To solve this problem, we propose an effective method for constructing fingerprint database by using Microelectro Mechanical System (MEMS) to assist Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), which overcomes the low efficiency of traditional methods. Meanwhile, the method achieves the comparable positioning accuracy and reduces workload more than 70%. In the optimization procedure, we use affine propagation clustering, outlier detection and filtering of Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) to optimize fingerprint database. Finally, the BLE positioning error conducted by the effective database is about 2 m.
