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, BLE beacons are widely used in indoor precision positioning systems because of their low battery consumption and low infrastructure cost. However, existing BLE beacon based indoor positioning algorithms are difficult to compensate for position errors due to the user's moving speed. Therefore, we proposed a position error correction algorithm that combines bounced cancellation and minimum distance maintenance algorithm with a positioning error correction method using direction vectors. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm guarantees superior positioning performance than the existing indoor positioning algorithm and also improves the performance of position error compensation.

최근 무선랜 기반 실내 측위시스템을 활용하는 위치정보 서비스가 주목을 받고 있다. 기존 측위 방식에서는 주로 삼각측량 기법에 의존하여 사용자 단말의 위치를 측정하고 있으나, 실내 벽 등의 장애물로 인하여 정확한 측위가 어려울 뿐만 아니라 측위 오차가 크다는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 무선랜 기반 실내 측위시스템에서 방(room) 등의 블록(block) 단위로 사용자의 위치를 측정하는 방법을 제시한다. 실험 결과, 제안 방식은 기존 방식에 비해 측위 오차를 50% 이상 감소시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다.

As the demand for indoor location recognition system has been rapidly increased in accordance with the increasing use of smart devices and the increasing use of augmented reality, indoor positioning systems(IPS) using BLE (Bluetooth Lower Energy) beacons and UWB (Ultra Wide Band) have been developed. In this paper, a positioning plate is generated by using trilateration technique based on BLE Beacon and using RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator). The resultant value is used to calculate the PDR-based coordinates using the positioning element of the Inertial Measurement Unit sensor, We propose a precise indoor positioning algorithm that combines RSSI and PDR technique. Based on the plate algorithm proposed in this paper, the experiment have done at large scale indoor sports arena and airport, and the results were successfully verified by 65% accuracy improvement with average 2.2m error.

According to the advent of the ubiquitous environment, not only a location based service at the outside but also a location based service at the inside was more increased socially. Accordingly, this paper proposes the efficient determination system to locate a object in frequent change of indoor environment. Proposing system in this paper introduce the NLOS identification and mitigation to resolve NLOS problem, using this way that corrects location data as RWA and KF apply to result data can improve accuracy of a object. At last we are going to compare and analyze existing typical triangulation with proposed indoor location determination system to demonstrate algorithm efficiency for proposed indoor location determination system.

위치기반 서비스(LBS : Local Based Service)는 단연 GPS가 그 중심이라 할 수 있다. 그러나 실외가 아닌 실내에서의 측위는 GPS신호가 도달할 수 없고, 또한 기존에 연구 중인 실내측위 기술들은 여러 가지 문제점을 갖고 있다. 따라서 다양한 서비스가 구현 가능한 ZigBee 기반의 USN내에서 기존의 다양한 센서들이 구동되면서 ZigBee 노드 간의 신호의 세기인 RSSI(Received Signal Strength Indicator)를 활용한 위치측위시스템을 구현한다. 또한 기존의 RSSI를 활용한 실내측위의 문제점들을 보완하기 위하여 신경회로망을 이용한 위측측위 알고리즘을 제안하여 보다 정확하고 안정적인 위치정보 시스템을 구현한다. 따라서 실내위치측위가 필요한 다양한 공공장소에 적합한 위치기반 서비스가 도입될 수 있는 가능성을 제시한다.

Through the study on the implementation of coverage using lenticular stickers, we will discuss how to implement coverage of lenticular stickers, which is one of the most important parts of lenticular positioning technology.

In this paper, we propose an image-based indoor localization system using parallel distributed computing. In order to reduce computation time for indoor localization, an scale invariant feature transform (SIFT) algorithm is performed in parallel by using Apache Spark. Toward this goal, we propose a novel image processing interface of Apache Spark. The experimental results show that the speed of the proposed system is about 3.6 times better than that of the conventional system.
