Experiences with Performance Tradeoffs in Practical, Continuous Indoor Localization
This paper describes our experiences and observations with the first version of a localization system that continuous tracks the indoor location of a large number of consumer mobile devices. Unlike past work that focuses principally on the accuracy of the location tracking algorithm, we study the pe...

RANJAN, Vikash LUONG, Trung-Tuan BALAN, Rajesh Krishna MISRA, Archan This paper describes our experiences and observations with the first version of a localization system that continuous tracks the indoor location of a large number of consumer mobile devices. Unlike past work that focuses principally on the accuracy of the location tracking algorithm, we study the performance of the localization system in terms of key additional metrics: scalability and energy-efficiency, which can sometimes conflict with the desire for high accuracy. To ensure that our solution can handle both Android and iOS-based mobile devices (& other closed mobile platforms), we adapt the conventional client-side fingerprinting-based localization approaches to develop a novel and practical infrastructure-based location tracking strategy. We study the relative accuracy to the two approaches in two different types of indoor buildings. Our studies establish how the building and its occupancy characteristics affect the accuracy achievable by different algorithms, and provides insights into why accurate indoor location tracking remains a challenge in practice. 2013-06-01T07:00:00Z text application/pdf https://ink.library.smu.edu.sg/sis_research/1827 info:doi/10.1109/WoWMoM.2013.6583387 https://ink.library.smu.edu.sg/context/sis_research/article/2826/viewcontent/wowmom13_av.pdf http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems eng Institutional Knowledge at Singapore Management University Indoor localization urban sensing Buildings Accuracy Smart phones Performance evaluation Vectors Compass Software Engineering |
