  Abstract

In order to estimate the user location in an indoor Wi-Fi environment, the fingerprint map should be firstly constructed by measuring the received signal strength indicator (RSSI) of the existing access points (APs). However, the localization accuracy will be largely decreased because of the unstable RSSI values due to noise. In this paper, we proposed the localization algorithm (LA_VAP_KF) using the virtual access point (VAP) and the Kalman filter (KF) in indoor Wi-Fi environment and analyzed the localization accuracy of the proposed algorithm. It is confirmed that the accuracy of the distance error of the LA_VAP_KF is 3.43m, and it is increased than that of the fingerprint and VAP based algorithms by as much as 0.72m and 1.75m, respectively.
