Abstract

RSS (Received signal strength) floating is the major limit to WLAN (wireless local area network) based positioning accuracy. We proposes an algorithm based on particle filter in order to realize a WLAN/inertial sensors combined positioning system using inertial sensors in the intelligent mobile terminals. The system fuses the complementary information from WLAN and inertial sensors positioning techniques to correct the positioning error due to the RSS floating and the accumulated error of inertial sensors. The experimental results show that the positioning accuracy of the proposed system is reduced by 49% and 88% as compared with WLAN based system and inertial sensors based system.
