Indoor Positioning by Weighted Fuzzy Matching in Lifi Based Hospital Ward Environment

Abstract

Core technologies of the fourth industrial revolution include AI (Artificial Intelligence), IoT (Internet of Things), and Big Data. The field of effective use of these technologies is the field of navigation. However, in indoor navigation, the accuracy is very low due to objects and walls placed in various positions. In this paper, we propose an indoor location tracking technology based on LiFi (Light Fidelity) communication to determine the exact location of a user using location tracking technology and communication technology. First of all, the fingerprinting database is constructed by measuring the CIR (Channel Impulse Response) value of each SP (Sample Point) using the fingerprinting technique. Then we use the Weighted Fuzzy Matching Algorithm to track the user’s location. The simulation results show that the performance of the LiFi environment is superior to that of the WiFi (Wireless Fidelity) environment.
