Brief abstract:
Due to their social impact and business potential, indoor localisation systems have become a significant research focus. Despite significant research progress and high industrial interest levels, standardised solutions are yet to emerge. The wide variety of applications, environments, sensor types, and user requirements has posed challenges to creating universally applicable systems. This course will introduce indoor positioning systems and location-based services primarily utilising radio waves. In the first part, we will examine a range of cutting-edge technologies (such as BLE5.1, UWB, and FTM RTT) and techniques (including neural networks). Key performance metrics and efforts in standardisation will also be discussed. The second part of the course will focus on real-world applications and corresponding systems. Finally, we will explore potential future directions in this field, considering technological advancements and theoretical developments.
Syllabus
• Practical introduction to indoor positioning systems and location based services.
• Examples of application of fingerprint techniques for wireless signals.
• State-of-the-art solutions and open challenges (e.g. standardization).
• Future direction in the field.
