15. INDOOR LOCATION TECHNOLOGIES
Enterprise Class WiFi + Positioning Server Existing WiFi + Cellular Signals
• Corporate WiFi is deployed for broadband & indoor • Existing WiFi + Cellular Signals are surveyed
location and logged in a database
• Angle-of-Arrival, Time-of-Arrival or received signal • “Finger Prints” of RF signals are recorded
strength is used to calculate position in a database
• Position server records location dynamically • Position is determined by interpolating
Finger Print data
16. INDOOR POSITIONING – WI-FI ONLY
+ Start
Last GPS fix
• Once GPS is lost indoors, the locations of
+ Wi-Fi access points are used to determine
approximate position once every 20s
+ • The uncertainty illustrated by the size of

cases impractical
• Once outdoors, a more accurate GPS position
is obtained and the uncertainty shrinks

18. INDOOR POSITIONING – PDR ONLY
+ Start
Last GPS fix
• Once GPS is lost indoors, the PDR is used to
keep track of position
• The MEMS sensors drift and the error
accumulates at a growth rate of 10% of distance
travelled
• Soon the position track is not representative of
the actual path
• The uncertainty illustrated by the size of the
+ End ellipses makes most indoor use cases
impractical

19. How do I improve location accuracy indoors
without the need to deploy an expensive
infrastructure that is also self learning
and self correcting?

21. SIRFUSION INDOOR POSITIONING – FUSION OF
GNSS, PDR AND WI-FI
Start
Last GPS fix • Once GPS is lost indoors, the MEMS
sensor output is used for dead reckoning
as the user moves
• The error grows about 10% of distance
traveled, so in 50m, the error grows
only 5m
• Wi-Fi positioning keeps the error from
growing too large
• The better accuracy allows the Wi-Fi
access point locations to be determined
End more precisely

23. MALL TEST – SILICON VALLEY
• Starts indoors near Macy’s
• Walk is all indoors until exiting through Nordstrom
• Uses Nexus One SiRFusion test phone
• Frequent start/stop during first 800s of test
• Wi-Fi locations determined using manual learning
24. MALL TEST – SILICON VALLEY
• Frequent start/stop during first 800s of test cause PDR wander
• Frequent Wi-Fi fixes available throughout
• SiRFusion greatly reduces deviations from route
