Research on RSS based Indoor Location Method

With the development of positioning in indoor wireless environments, RSS-based indoor positioning algorithm has been widely applied. Compared with other indoor positioning algorithms, the greatest advantage of RSS-based is that it can be configured easily and can get the signal strength from various types of networks that support the 802.11 protocol. Furthermore, it doesn´t need complex clock synchronization and data exchange. Current applied RSS-based indoor location algorithms are proposed in this paper. And also, the limitations and modified algorithms of these algorithms have been discussed. Comparing various current algorithms, this paper supported the applied prospects of SVM in indoor positioning systems.
