Abstract:
Attendance is of great importance in our daily activities as it determines performance, productivity and accountability in workplaces, classrooms, and other organizations but this has been an arduous task especially in a large enterprise. The relationship between Media Access Control (MAC) address of smart devices of users and the Received Signal Strength (RSS) from user device at Wireless Access Point (WAP) has been proven to be the way out. However, there are some factors such as the location of a WAP, type of Wi-Fi technology, security concerns, Angle of Arrival (AoA) of the received signal, etc. that were not considered for possible improvement on accuracy. This paper presents a smart attendance system for an organisation using enterprise AP. The proposed attendance system uses RSS and AoA for better accuracy and results. The paper also present comparison results on threshold RSS value and accuracy of attendance for IEEE802.11a and IEEE802.11g Wi-Fi standards.
