“…There is no lack of technologies, though. The research in the area ranges from WLAN coverage area modeling [14] to WLAN fingerprinting [15], from UWB (Ultra WideBand) ranging [16] to RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) tags [17] and from using BT LE (Bluetooth Low Energy) tags [18] to visual-based solutions [19]. Moreover, commercial solutions for small-scale for specific use cases exist.…”

“…Also the mass market production of beacons requires the radio and other components to be available in large quantities at low cost. In fact, there are promising technologies including the direction-of-departure method introduced in [18] that fulfills the majority of the discussed requirements. However, as any mass-market technology this should also be covered by the radio communication standards.…”

The next step in location services will be repeating the success of location services in outdoor use for navigation and local search in the indoor environment. In order to make indoor positioning and navigation reality in large scale not only compelling business opportunities must be present, but also the technology must be low-cost, lowpower, have low maintenance expenses and require minimal amount of new infrastructure. This paper reviews the challenges and solution models for indoor positioning starting from the service level aspects, reflecting them to the architectural considerations and finally discusses selected technical implementation issues.

Abstract-WristQue combines environmental and inertial sensing with precise indoor localization into a wristband wearable device that serves as the user's personal control interface to networked infrastructure. WristQue enables users to take control of devices around them by pointing to select and gesturing to control. At the same time, it uniquely identifies and locates users to deliver personalized automatic control of the user's environment. In this paper, the hardware and software components of the WristQue system are introduced, and a number of applications for lighting and HVAC control are presented, using pointing and gesturing as a new human interface to these networked systems.

“…Indoor, Wi-Fi is better than GSM, yielding an accuracy of 2.5-5.4 m, but outdoor GSM is better (75 m), especially in urban areas with a high antenna density [16]. A recent development is Nokia's indoor positioning technology [4] based on DoA (direction-of-arrival), with an accuracy better than 2-5 m. Another technology employs ToA/AoA (time/angle of arrival) with UWB (ultra-wideband), aiming at 10 cm. Pending availability of such advanced technology, one must select what is currently available and integrate this into a working system which is modular, such that future developments can be easily and rapidly adopted.…”
