Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Sensor localization is one of the big problems when building large scale indoor sensor networks because GPS (global positioning system) is unavailable in indoor environments. We are developing a sensor localization system using WiFi APs as anchors, which requires no anchor deployment. We have developed a cross-technology signal extraction scheme to measure WiFi-AP RSS (received signal strength) on sensor nodes and WiFi-AP channel estimator. In this paper, we present the design of ZigLoc and the evaluation of sensor localization error using WiFi AP fingerprint derived by WiFi module.
