Abstract

This work proposes a novel Integrated Heterogeneous Infrastructure for Indoor Positioning (IHIIP) with a low-energy Bluetooth beacon to obtain positioning data. This study defines the fuzzy area of subspace selection to improve the indoor positioning accuracy. This study proposed a novel threshold mechanisms are used to select the signal transmitter for positioning and thus improve current positioning accuracy of indoor environment. The IHIIP outperforms both Wi-Fi Access Point (AP) and Beacon in that it provides greater positioning accuracy. Experimental results demonstrate that the mean error distance is 1.29 m only using Wi-Fi AP, 1.33 m only using Beacon and 1.21 m in the proposed IHIIP for indoor positioning.
