Outline • Introduction • Definition • Important parameters • Indoor Localization Methods • Proximity Detection • Triangulation • Scene Analysis • Indoor Localization Systems • Proximity Based • RF Based • Cameras Based • Comparison of Common Indoor Localization Systems
Introduction - Defination • Def. Wirelessly locate objects or people inside a building in real time. • Indoor Positioning Systems (IPS) • Real-time Locating Systems (RTLS)
Introduction - Important Parameters • Accuracy • Coverage • Availability • Update Rate • Line of Sight (LoS) and Non Line of Sight (NLoS) • Costs and System Complexity
Introduction - LoS / NLoS • Line of Sight (LoS) and Non Line of Sight (NLoS)
Methods / Algorithm - Proximity / Cell of Origan • Proximity Detection: Sensors detect and measure reflected Infrared or • visiable light or RF wave to detect the presence of • an object or person in certain areas. • Highest Received Signal Strength = Highest Probability
Methods / Algorithm - Proximity / Cell of Origan • Advantages • No complicated algorithms • Easy to implement • Low cost • Disadvantages • Low accuracy - room level • Identification problem
Methods / Algorithm - Time based • ToA: Time of Arrival • The precise measurement of the arrival time of a signal transmitted • from a mobile device to several receiving sensors. • The distance between the mobile device and each receiving sensor • can be determined.
Methods / Algorithm - Time based - ToA • Advantages • High Accuracy • 2D / 3D • Disadvantages • Precise time synchronization (1 micro-second, 300m error) • Solutions are typically challenged in environments where a • large amount of multipath or interference may exist.
Methods / Algorithm - Time based - TDoA • TDoA: Time Difference of Arrival • Using relative Arrival time measurements at each receiving sensor • The synchronization between tag and each sensor is not necessary • Example: • TXC - TXA = 10-8s • TDoAC_A • TXB - TXA = 10-7s • TDoAB_A
Methods / Algorithm - Angle based - AoA • AoA/DoA: Angle of Arrival / Direction of Arrival (DoA) • Determining the angle of incidence at which signals arrive at the receiving sensor.
Methods / Algorithm - Angle based - AoA • More sensors = Higher accuracy
Methods / Algorithm - Angle based - AoA • Advantages • No synchronization requirement • Works well in situations with direct line of sight • Disadvantages • Susceptibility to multipath interference
Methods / Algorithm - Signal Property Based Signal attenuation can be exploited for distance estimation.
Methods / Algorithm - Signal Property Based RSS: Based on the attenuation model, the Received Signal Strength can be used to estimate the distanced of a person or a mobile object. • PR: Received signal strength at the receiver • PT: Transmitted power strength at the emitter • GT GR: Antenna gains of transmitter and receiver • d: Distance • P: The path loss factor
Methods / Algorithm - Signal Property Based The path loss factor (P) is related to the environmental conditions • P = 2 for free space • P > 2 for environments with NLoS multipath • P ≈ (4 - 6) for typical indoor environments In real world application, interference, multipath propagation and presence of obstacles and people leads to a complex spatial distribution of RSS. RSS Indicator (RSSI): averaged PR over a certain sampling period
Methods / Algorithm - Fingerprinting Off-Line
Methods / Algorithm - Fingerprinting M(-35, -50, -48, -60, -58,-24) vs. Database
Methods / Algorithm - Fingerprinting • Advantages • High accuracy • NLoS • Disadvantages • Complicated algorithms • Not easy to implement • High cost
Indoor Localization Systems - WIFI WIFI: (a superset of IEEE 802.11 standard) can be used to estimate the location of a mobile device within this network.
Indoor Localization Systems - RFID • RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) system consists of readers with antennas which interrogates nearby active transceivers or passive tags.
Indoor Localization Systems - ZigBee • ZigBee is a wireless technology particularly designed for applications which demand low power consumption and low data transmission.
Indoor Localization Systems - Cameras • Images → Cameras • Cameras → Database • Database → Virtual Map
