    WLAN-based Indoor Path-Tracking using Compressive RSS Measurements

    No full text
    International audienceIn this paper, a hybrid path-tracking system is introduced, which exploits the power of compressive sensing (CS) to recover accurately sparse signals, in conjunction with the efficiency of a Kalman filter to update the states of a dynamical system. The proposed method first employs a hierarchical region-based approach to constrain the area of interest, by modeling the signal-strength values received from a set of wireless access points using the statistics of multivariate Gaussian models. Then, based on the inherent spatial sparsity of indoor localization, CS is applied as a refinement of the estimated position by recovering an appropriate sparse position-indicator vector. The experimental evaluation with real data reveals that the proposed approach achieves increased localization accuracy when compared with previous methods, while maintaining a low computational complexity, thus, satisfying the constraints of mobile devices with limited resources
