Fingerprinting based localization in heterogeneous wireless networks

作者:

Highlights:

• RSS fingerprints can be a feasible solution for indoor positioning in HWNs.

• New method based on searching the area which best matches the test RSS fingerprint.

• New model of cooperative positioning by combining the estimates obtained in HWN.

• Performance evaluated in realistic HWN and significant improvements demonstrated.
