Indoor Localization • Localization: To locate a device. • Why not GPS? • Wardriving/ Warwalking: Searching for a Wi-fi network while changing location. • Cost and human effort associated with other indoor localization methods.
SpinLoc: Introduction • Hypothesis: Maximum attenuation is observed when the human is in between the device and the AP.
Signal Transmission in Indoor environment • EDP (Energy of Direct Path) Vs RSSS (Receiving signal strength)
EDP Vs Orientation • In all cases, we have least EDP at 180 degrees.
Performance Evaluation • Angle error reduces with increasing SNR
Spinloc Limitations and future research • Requires user to spin once. • Depends on availability of atleast 3 APs with high SNR. • Results could vary with increasing crowd. • Need to be able to localize based on turns instead of 360 degree rotation. • Should be able to constantly localize without user making full rotation.
Queries?? Thanks and regards MallikaKogatam
