Abstract

Most people rely on the Global Positioning System (GPS) to provide location information, weather forecasts, and navigation. GPS devices use four or more satellites to determine location, which works with great accuracy in outdoor environments and is vital for users worldwide. However, GPS is not efficient for indoor conditions due to the need for an unobstructed line-of-sight connection with satellites. With the construction of buildings over 3 million sq ft floor areas worldwide, there is a real need for positioning and navigation in indoor spaces. Researchers are exploring alternative systems for GPS, using popular wireless technologies like Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, RFID, and Infrared. This proposed work aims to develop a mobile application that can estimate a user’s position within a building using Wi-Fi technology.
