Indoor Position Method Using Wi-Fi
| Summary: | The main objective of this paper is to present an indoor position method, developed for museums and hospitals, in order to known the position of persons and equipments. The method is composed by a particle filter algorithm to be embedded in smartphones or tags. The main goal is to develop a light method to run by not very powerful microprocessors, energized by batteries. The position method presented is based on a Wi-Fi structure, to lighten the use of the communication network, the position is generated by each device from raw data received locally. |
