Indoor Positioning System

The positioning system research strongly supports the development of location-based services used by related business organizations. However, location-based services with user experience still have many obstacles to overcome, including how to maintain a high level of position accuracy. From the literature studies reviewed, it is necessary to develop an indoor positioning system using fingerprinting based on Received Signal Strength (RSS). So far, the testing of the indoor positioning system has been carried out with an algorithm. But, in this research, with the proposed parameters, we will conduct experiments with a learning approach. The data tested is the signal service data on the device in the Dinamika Bangsa University building. The test was conducted with a deep learning approach using a deep neural network (DNN) algorithm. The DNN method can estimate the actual space and get better position results, whereas machine learning methods such as the DNN algorithm can handle more effectively large data and produce more accurate data. From the results of comparative testing with the learning approach between DNN, KNN, and SVM, it can be concluded that the evaluation with KNN is slightly better than the use of DNN in a single case. However, the results of KNN have low consistency; this is seen from the fluctuations in the movements of the R2 score and MSE values produced. Meanwhile, DNN gives a consistent value even though it has varied hidden layers. The Support Vector Machine (SVM) gives the worst value of these experiments, although, in the past, SVM was known as one of the favorite methods.

WLAN based localization is a key technique of location-based services (LBS) indoors. However, the indoor environment is complex; received signal strength (RSS) is highly uncertain, multimodal, and nonlinear. The traditional location estimation methods fail to provide fair estimation accuracy under the said environment. We proposed a novel indoor positioning system that considers the nonlinear discriminative feature extraction of RSS using kernel local Fisher discriminant analysis (KLFDA). KLFDA extracts location features in a well-preserved kernelized space. In the new kernel featured space, nonlinear RSS features are characterized effectively. Along with handling of nonlinearity, KLFDA also copes well with the multimodality in the RSS data. By performing KLFDA, the discriminating information contained in RSS is reorganized and maximally extracted. Prior to feature extraction, we performed outlier detection on RSS data to remove any anomalies present in the data. Experimental results show that the proposed approach obtains higher positioning accuracy by extracting maximal discriminate location features and discarding outlying information present in the RSS data.

The need for location based services has dramatically increased within the past few years, especially with the popularity and capability of mobile device such as smart phones and tablets. The limitation of GPS for indoor positioning has seen an increase of indoor positioning based on Wireless Local Area Network 802.11. The authors demonstrate here a real world application of determining one's location with the Cisco Context-Aware Mobility which provides a Real Time Location System solution based on Wi-Fi. They detail their implementation of an Android application which communicates with the Cisco Context-Aware Mobility system to visually display the location of the mobile device. The application was tested in a production environment and limitations in the production environment along with the diagnostic capabilities of the Context-Aware Mobility were identified. The authors found that to obtain optimal accuracy, a device must be detected by four or more Access points so a recommended distribution for an indoor positioning system built on the Cisco context-aware mobility framework is for an Access Point to be placed every 12 – 20 linear meters.

In recent years, developing Indoor Positioning System (IPS) has become an attractive research topic due to the increasing demands on Location-Based Service (LBS) in indoor environment. Several advantages of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Technology, such as anti-interference, small, light and portable size of RFID tags, and its unique identification of different objects, make it superior to other wireless communication technologies for indoor positioning. However, certain drawbacks of existing RFID-based IPSs, such as high cost of RFID readers and active tags, as well as heavy dependence on the density of reference tags to provide the LBS, largely limit the application of RFID-based IPS. In order to overcome these drawbacks, we develop a cost-efficient RFID-based IPS by using cheaper active RFID tags and sensors. Furthermore, we also proposed three localization algorithms: Weighted Path Loss (WPL), Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) and integrated WPL-ELM. WPL is a centralized model-based approach which does not require any reference tags and provides accurate location estimation of the target effectively. ELM is a machine learning fingerprinting-based localization algorithm which can provide higher localization accuracy than other existing fingerprinting-based approaches. The integrated WPL-ELM approach combines the fast estimation of WPL and the high localization accuracy of ELM. Based on the experimental results, this integrated approach provides a higher localization efficiency and accuracy than existing approaches, e.g., the LANDMARC approach and the support vector machine for regression (SVR) approach.

Indoor Positioning System

With rapid growth in the demand of location-based services (LBS) in indoor environments, localizations based on fingerprinting have attracted significant interest due to their convenience. Until now, most such methods were based on received signal strength indicator (RSSI), which is vulnerable to non-line-of-sight (NLOS). In order to realize high-precision indoor positioning, we propose a channel state information (CSI)-based Amp-Phi indoor-positioning system which exploits the amplitude and phase information of CSI at the same time to establish a fingerprinting database. Firstly, according to the characteristics of the raw CSI information collected at different positions under different environments, we build an NLOS mitigation model and a phase error mitigation model, respectively, to process the amplitude and phase of CSI. Secondly, we analyze the statistical characteristics of CSI carefully, including maximum, minimum, mean and variance. After being processed with the models, the CSI features can be used to distinguish different positions clearly, which provides a theoretical basis for the indoor positioning based on fingerprinting. Finally, we build a fingerprinting database based on the features of amplitude and phase, realize to locate the target’s position with the K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) matching algorithm. Experiments implemented in different situations show that Amp-Pi system is reliable and robust, whose position accuracy is higher than that of PhaseFi, Horus and machine learning (ML) systems under the same condition. It can be used in many scenarios, such as the localization of robots in our daily life, by doctors or patients in the hospital, for people localization in large supermarkets or museums and so on.

Indoor positioning system is an active research area. There are various performance metrics such as accuracy, computation time, precision, and f-score in machine learning based indoor positioning systems. The aim of this study is to present a multi-criteria decision strategy to determine suitable machine learning methods for a specific indoor positioning system. This helps to evaluate the performance of machine learning algorithms considering multiple criteria. During the experiments, UJIIndoorLoc, KIOS and RFKON datasets are used from the positioning literature. The algorithms such as k-nearest neighbor, support vector machine, decision tree, naïve bayes and bayesian networks are compared using these datasets. In addition to these, ensemble learning algorithms, namely adaboost and bagging, are utilized to improve the performance of these classifiers. As a conclusion, the test results for any specific dataset are reevaluated using the performance metrics such as accuracy, f-score and computation time, and a multi-criteria decision strategy is proposed to find the most convenient algorithm. The analytical hierarchy process is used for multi-criteria decision. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work to select the proper machine learning algorithm for an indoor positioning system using multi-criteria decision strategy.

Indoor Positioning System

The existence of mobile devices as a location pointing device using Global Positioning System (GPS) is a very common thing nowadays. The use of GPS as a tool to determine the location of course has a shortage when used indoors. Therefore, the used of indoor location-based services in a room that leverages the use of Access Point (AP) is very important. By using the information of the Received Signal Strength (RSS) obtained from AP, then the location of the device can be determined without the need to use GPS. This technique is called the location fingerprint technique using the characteristics of received RSS’s fingerprint, then use it to determine the position. To get a more accurate position then authors used the K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) method. KNN will use some of the data that obtained from some AP to assist in positioning the device. This solution of course would be able to determine the position of the devices in a storied building.
