Abstract
Wi-Fi ingerprint-based localization is currently the most promising approach to building metropolitan-scale localization systems for both indoor and outdoor environments. A Wi-Fi fingerprint localization system makes use of a radio map that contains Wi-Fi signals received at various locations, and uses the map for location estimation. Thus, the accuracy of a Wi-Fi fingerprint localization system greatly depends on the quality of its radio map. This paper explores various properties of a metropolitan radio map that may affect the accuracy of Wi-Fi fingerprint localization systems. In this study, metropolitan-scale radio maps are obtained using war walking and war driving. These maps contain hundreds of thousands of access points and signal samples. A detailed comparison analysis of selected radio map properties reveals how different map properties affect the difference between the positional accuracies of the driving and walking radio maps in Wi-Fi fingerprint-based localization.
