Abstract

Considering the low localization accuracy caused by uncertainty of indoor environment changes and many unexpected factors like man-made interference, this paper presents an indoor space localization method based on Hidden Markov Model. By adding indoor localization component program to the system of off-the-shelf WSN deployment, this method can collect mobile-node’s RF characteristic parameters relation to the indoor positioning , without changing the network topology and system function. Then these parameters are processed by Hidden Markov Model to eliminate the effect of indoor environment changes and man-made interference, consequently getting mobile-node’s precise localization in the room.
