Abstract

Wireless LAN fingerprinting positioning technology is applied in indoor space equipped with some Wireless LAN access points. WLAN fingerprinting positioning technology utilize specified devices to receive WLAN signal and analyze signal strength in order to establish complete fingerprint database which experimental data can be loaded into to accomplish final positioning target under the instruction of specified pattern matching algorithm. Smart phone was developed into such a device to receive WLAN signal. After establishing fingerprint database, two pattern matching algorithms are used to achieve positioning target and verify the influence on positioning accuracy by WLAN signal direction and WLAN access point number.
