Kalman tracking of mobile devices considering range-free localization accuracy

The estimated position of range-free localization is sensitive to change of connectivity information between mobile devices. To compensate the defect, we propose a Kalman tracking of mobile devices with range-free localization. We analyze the performance results with aspects of range-free localization accuracy and real indoor environment.
