Abstract :
This paper focuses on the location of the signal strength, and introduces the simple signal propagation model and an empirical model based on linear regression which is suitable for non-visible environments. Based on the two models, the object position is solved by simplex method. The simulation results demonstrate the proposed indoor positioning method using linear regression method and simplex method has good positioning performance.
