Developing a Local Positioning Algorithm Based on the Identification of Objects in a Wi-Fi Network of the Mall

Abstract

The proposed algorithm for local positioning in the mall is based on the Wi-Fi standard, in which the signal strength received by the mobile device from Wi-Fi access points is the only source of information about the location of objects. The study formalizes the problem of local identification of the object in the mall using Wi-Fi technology; The requirements for a local positioning system that identifies an object using Wi-Fi technology are formulated. The developed prototype can be used to determine the location and construction of a route of a moving object in the mall.
