Abstract

The ability to estimate the location of wireless device users has led to many applications that use location information to provide users and service providers with commercially valuable real time information. In this paper, we propose a low-complexity method for location estimation in an indoor wireless local area network (WLAN) deployment. The proposed method relies on measurements of signal strength (SS) of multiple access-points (APs) in a WLAN and is based on a piecewise-linear model that represents distances from APs in terms of SS measurements. The proposed scheme has significantly lower computational and storage requirements as compared to conventional location estimation methods.
