Title
Eight-Diagram Based Access Point Selection Algorithm for Indoor Localization
Abstract
A new method is proposed for selecting Access Points (APs) with propagation direction combination based on Eight-Diagram for indoor localization in indoor environments, which can not only improve positioning accuracy, but also reduce computational complexity by using fewer APs. With propagation direction combination based on eight basic directions, for instance, east, south, west, north, southeast, northeast, southwest and northwest, provided by the Eight-Diagram, the proposed AP selection algorithm can be applied to indoor scenarios where Wi-Fi RSSI is corrupted by multipath interference. Experiments were conducted and the results demonstrate that the proposed AP selection algorithm achieves an accuracy considerably better than the WKNN, MaxMean, InfoGain and PCA methods. Due to the use of fewer APs, the proposed algorithm has lower computational complexity than the MaxMean and InfoGain algorithms, and equivalent with the PCA algorithm.
