Abstract :
This paper proposes an indoor navigation technique for a smartphone using WiFi. An improved Kalman filter (IKF) is proposed to navigate in dynamic indoor environments with the fingerprinting technique. The results indicate that the IKF shows improved accuracy when compared to the conventional Kalman filter in a real-time scenario.
