Recently, users who are interested in the service at indoor spaces is increasing. An indoor positioning system can minimize a range of positioning error using a variety of wireless communication infrastructure. Also, the system improves an indoor positioning accuracy by combining a mobile communication network. However, flexible positioning technologies regardless of an environment are insufficient. Therefore, this is time for a systematic study on an indoor positioning system business model. This paper classify differences between an indoor positioning system technology and outdoor positioning system technology. And we research a construction and application of the indoor positioning system that is adapted a wireless communication system (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, RFID, UWE, Fingerprint, etc.) in domestic and foreign. We present a successful model of indoor positioning system and the development for future systems.

위치기반서비스는 기본적으로 사용자의 위치를 파악해야 한다. 측위방법은 옥외용과 옥내용으로 구분되며, 옥외용에는 GPS 방법, 이동통신망을 이용한 방법, GPS와 이동통신망을 복합적으로 활용한 방법이 있고, 옥내용에는 적외선을 이용한 방법, 초음파를 이용한 ActiveBat과 Cricket, RF 신호를 이용한 RADAR가 있다. 기존의 옥외용 측위방법은 옥내에서는 사용이 제한되고, 기존의 옥내용 측위방법은 특수한 환경을 꾸며주어야 하는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 단점을 보완한 방법으로 GPS 수신모듈과 무선LAN용 AP의 신호의 세기를 이용하여 사용자의 위치를 판단하는 옥내외 통합 측위시스템을 소개한다. 검증을 위해 제안하는 시스템을 구현해 보았으며, 실험 결과로 성능평가를 한다.

사용자의 위치를 파악하는 것은 위치기반서비스 시스템 개발에 필수 요소이다. 본 논문은 액세스 포인트의 신호의 세기를 참조하여 사용자의 위치를 파악하는 방법을 소개한다. 기존의 위치 파악 시스템은 옥외용과 옥내용으로 분류되고, 옥내용은 실내의 일정 영역에 적외선 센서를 부착하거나, 천정에 초음파와 RF 신호 발생기를 부착하는 등 특수한 환경을 꾸며주는 것이 필수적이다. 옥외용으로는 GPS가 대표적으로 사용되는데 옥내에서는 GPS 데이터를 수신할 수 없다는 단점이 있다. 근래에 들어 무선 랜이 흔히 설치됨에 따라 본 논문은 무선 랜에 이미 설치된 액세스 포인트의 신호 세기를 이용한 측위 방법을 제안한다. 이 방법은 무선 랜이 설치된 곳이라면 옥내나 옥외에서도 적용이 가능한 장점이 있다.

We propose IC-IPDL method, in order to improve hearability which is the fundamental problem of cellular-based location systems. The proposed method improves hearability by using interference cancellation technique for CPICH and modified-IPDL method for other downlink channels. The simulation results showed that IC-IPDL method has a similar performance of the case using standard IPDL method though CPICH exists during idle period.

WPS determines position via a two-step process. In the construction phase, a radio map is constituted by collecting radio information signals. Positioning procedure is a step of comparing the radio signal newly acquired with the radio map. If the signals collected and the radio map are different the accuracy decreases. Even though the rate of accuracy is different according to positioning algorithms, accuracy drop is an issue common to all WPS systems. Signal strength fluctuation is caused by the malfunction of the device that receives positioning signals, obstruction and channel interference, etc. In this paper, in order to solve the problem caused by signal strength change, we propose a new radio map construction technique. The proposed method is intended to constitute a strong radio map to changes in the signal strength and updated by collecting the signal strength changes to the radio map. The use of this method is expected to enhance the accuracy of WPS by actively counteracting signal fluctuation.

Location-based service providing the customized information or service according to the user's location has attracted a lot of attention from the mobile communication industry. The service is realized by means of several building blocks, a localization scheme, service platform, application and service. The localization scheme figures out a moving target's position through measuring and processing a wireless signal. In this paper, we propose an adaptive localization scheme in an indoor localization system based on IEEE 802.15.4 standard. In order to enhance the localization accuracy, the proposed scheme selects the best reference points and adaptively reflects the changes of propagation environments of a moving target to approximate distances between the target and the reference points in RSS(Received Signal Strength) based localization system using triangulation. Through the implementation of the localization system, we verify the performance of the proposed scheme in terms of the localization accuracy.

In this paper, in order to minimize limitations such as signal interference and positioning errors in existing indoor positioning systems, a smart LED-based positioning system for excellent line-of-sight radio environments and precise location tracking is proposed to improve accuracy. An IEEE 802.4 Zigbee module is mounted on the SMPS board of a smart LED; RSSI and LQI signals are received from a moving tag, and the system is configured to transmit the measured data to the positioning server through a gateway. For the experiment, the necessary hardware, such as the gateway and the smart LED module, were separately designed, and the experiment was conducted after configuring the system in an external field office. The positioning error was within 70cm as a result of performing complex calculations in the positioning server after transmitting a vector value of the moving object obtained from the direction sensor, together with a signal from the moving object received by the smart LED. The result is a significantly improved positioning error, compared to an existing short-range wireless communications-based system, and shows the level at which commercial products can be implemented.

Recently, location-based service as the developed continuously, interest in positioning technology is increasing. As the most famous indoor positioning technology, WPS is a positioning technology using WiFi, which can complement the limits of the indoor positioning to have a GPS. In this paper, to provide a system for monitoring the position of the inside of the user based on the position information that using the RSSI signal of the wireless AP based WPS technology, they grip the location information of the mobile nodes in the indoor. If using the method proposed, it is expected to be applied to various services it is possible to apply the WPS, this is because it is possible to estimate in real time the location distribution of mobile nodes in the indoor.
