Abstract
In this paper we present a practical approach to relative positioning of heterogeneous mass market devices. We propose a user-centric solution exploiting measurements from on-the-fly fixed reference points detected during scanning procedures. The technique implemented on mobile devices is able to locate neighboring nodes, demonstrating to be a feasible and practical solution for sensing spatial social contexts in ad-hoc environments.
