Abstract
A positioning algorithm based on the relative order of the received signal strengths is discussed. This algorithm in conjunction with the ray-tracing propagation model can have promising performance for indoor environments without any needs for extensive set of a priori training. Enhancements to the positioning algorithm will be proposed and investigated. Two sets of experimental results with 802.11-based infrastructure and MICA2 motes are presented to demonstrate the system capability and performance in practice.
