In this paper, a new Smartphone sensor based algorithm is proposed to detect
accurate distance estimation. The algorithm consists of two phases, the first
phase is for detecting the peaks from the Smartphone accelerometer sensor. The
other one is for detecting the step length which varies from step to step. The
proposed algorithm is tested and implemented in real environment and it showed
promising results. Unlike the conventional approaches, the error of the
proposed algorithm is fixed and is not affected by the long distance.
