Avaliação de Algoritmos de Localização Indoor baseados em Mapa de Assinatura de WLANs

There are a growing number of studies on WIPSs (WLAN -based Indoor Positioning System), that is, local positioning system without dedicated infrastructure based on wireless local area networks (WLANs). Several location algorithms for these systems have been proposed recently, requiring their implementation for validation and configuration. This paper presents an interactive simulator for performance analysis of 2D location algorithms based on signal strength maps. The simulator was implemented in Matlab. A WIPS has also been implemented in practice for validating the simulator. Keywords— Indoor positioning system, 2D localization, WLAN, simulator.
