Abstract

This article describes how indoor localization of Wi-Fi AP (access point) plays an important role in the discovery of illegal indoor Wi-Fi and for the safety inspection of confidential places. There have been many related research results in recent years. In this article, a review is presented on the indoor localization technique of Wi-Fi AP. First, indoor localization methods of Wi-Fi AP can be divided into three categories: localization based on signal strength; fingerprint feature; and distance measurement. Then, the basic principles of the three methods are described respectively, and an evaluation of the typical methods are provided. Finally, the authors point out some research tendency of the indoor localization techniques of Wi-Fi AP.
