Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) This paper proposes a method for estimating a user's location with RSSI (Receiver Signal Strength Indicator) of Bluetooth in order to obtain information about the user's interactions. The method uses average, maximal, minimum and median values of RSSI that the mobile station attached to the user obtains from some fixed stations in a sliding window. This method has been evaluated experimentally in simulated ward environment with two beds. The method obtains more than 90% accuracy for identifying the patient that the user interacts.
