Abstract
With the rapid development in the field of communication networks, an indoor positioning system (IPs) has become extremely popular in recent years. In this paper, we compute the access points (AP’s) localization to get the best coverage of the building that takes as a case study and administration of the network. The most interesting researcher topics were computing the Received Signal Strength (RSS) measurement and path loss of the signal. RSS and path loss measurement obtained from different received points distributed in different places of the building. The objective of this technique provides an overview of the available outputs of a standard Wi-Fi signal, which is the RSS from each Access Point. So, it is possible to get a list of the received power coming from all the APs covering the area where the received points are distributed in different locations. The result of the simulation presented and obtained by using specialized software to determine the best direction at each received point. This algorithm uses these measurements and considered two-step localization approach, data collecting phase, and localization phase. The case study is implemented simulation results using 3D-Ray Tracing approach based wireless InSite software. This software is a suite of ray-tracing models and high-fidelity EM solvers for the analysis of site-specific radio wave propagation and wireless communication system.
