Abstract

A scalable indoor localization technique is a vital technology for future large-scale location-aware services covering a complex of multi-story buildings. Our research on the usage of ResNet for scalable building/floor categorization and floor-level position estimation based on Wi-Fi fingerprinting is presented in this publication. Building and floor-level coordinates are estimated using our new ResNet architecture, which utilizes a stacked autoencoder to reduce feature space and a feed-forward classifier to classify multiple labels of building/floor/location. This architecture is the foundation for our multi-building and multi-floor indoor localization system based on Wi-Fi fingerprinting. On the Jaume I University (UJI) campus in Spain, we test the accuracy of building/floor estimation and floor-level coordinates estimation for three buildings with four or five stories each. ResNet-based indoor localization using a single ResNet has been proven to be feasible, with results that are close to the state of the art. One ResNet is all that is needed in order for the proposed indoor localization system based on Wi-Fi fingerprinting to function at levels close to the current state of the art, allowing it to be implemented with less complexity and less energy consumption on mobile devices.
