The most typically utilized positioning method in the existing indoor WPS that is a positioning method utilizing distributed wireless network is the finger print. Its positioning is carried out by calculating the difference between the AP information map and WiFi AP signal collected. However, there are problems like low accuracy and high cost when the existing method and the radio map formation are applied to outdoors. In this paper, the characteristics of the existing WPS are surveyed and their problems are examined. In addition, we propose a new WPS using weak signal and a method to construct radio map in order to solve the above problems. And then, the results of experimental test will be analyzed.

The wireless AP positioning system is under active progress regarding research and commercialization due to its merit of being able to overcome the representing demerits of existing GPS positioning, which are signal distortion and poor signal reception. This system's feature is to collect AP information distributed throughout the real world, store it on database, and execute positioning by comparing with searched AP information. The positioning process uses collected data, whereas comparison of database data uses the fingerprinting method. The fingerprinting method is a probabilistic modeling method that acquires as much of the data collected from one location upon database composition, to store the value's average value and use it in positioning. Yet, using the average value may contain the probability of errors. Such errors are fatal weaknesses for services based on the background of accurate positioning. This paper deals with the characteristics and problems of the previously used wireless AP positioning system, and proposes measures of using AP information for outdoor positioning in order to solve the aforementioned problems.

In this study, an WiFi fingerprinting method based on the k-nn algorithm was applied to improve the accuracy of location tracking of a moving train on a platform and evaluate the performance to minimize the estimation error of location tracking. The data related to the position of the moving train are monitored by the control center for trains and used widely for the safety and comfort of passengers. The train location tracking methods based on WiFi installed by telecom companies were evaluated. In this study, a simulator was developed to consider the environments of two cases; in already installed WiFi devices and new installed WiFi devices. The developed simulator can simulate the localized estimation of the position under a variety of conditions, such as the number of WiFi devices, the area of platform and entry velocity of train. To apply location tracking algorithms, a k-nn algorithm and fuzzy k-nn algorithm were applied selectively according to the underlying condition and also four distance measurement algorithms were applied to compare the error of location tracking. In conclusion, the best method to estimate train location tracking is a combination of the k-nn algorithm and Minkoski distance measurement at a 0.5m grid unit and 8 WiFi AP installed.

There are many techniques for locating users in an indoor spot. Among them, WiFi fingerprinting technique which is widely used is phased into a data collection step and a positioning step. In the data collection step, all surrounding Wi-Fi signals are collected and managed as a list. The more data collected, the better the accuracy of the indoor position based on Wi-Fi fingerprint. Existing high-quality data collection and management methods are time consuming and costly, and many operations are required to extract and generate data necessary for machine learning. Therefore, we research how to collect and manage large amount of data in limited resources. This paper presents efficient data collection methods and data generation for learning.

The positioning system based on wireless AP collects AP information distributed in the real world, stores it into database, and measures the position objects by comparing with searched AP information. The existing fingerprinting method is a probabilistic modeling method that acquires much of the data collected from one location upon database composition, and stores the average of the data for the sake of use it in positioning objects. Using the average value, however, may cause the probability of errors Such errors are fatal weaknesses for services based on the accurate position. This paper described the characteristics and problems of the previously used wireless AP positioning system, and proposed a method of using the AP DB and an MSS mechanism for outdoor positioning in order to solve the aforementioned problems. And the results obtained from experimental tests showed that the proposed method achieved very low error rate(27%) compared with the existing method.

무선환경은 가짜 클론 디바이스가 진짜인 것처럼 위장한 해킹공격에 매우 취약한 것으로 잘 알려져 있다. 그것은 단말기와 기지국(AP: Access Point)이 위변조가 쉬운 디바이스 식별자(예로 MAC(Medium Access Control) 주소, SSID, BSSID(Basic Service Set Identification) 등)를 이용하여 상호 인증하기 때문이다. 무선핑거프린팅(Wireless Fingerprinting)은 통신과정에서 발생되는 무선신호 특성으로부터 디바이스를 고유하게 식별하는 핑거프린트를 추출하여 송신 디바이스가 가짜 클론 디바이스인지 아닌지 여부를 식별하는 기술이다. 본 기술은 무선물리계층 보안을 위한 인증 및 키 생성, 무선 침입탐지, 공격자의 위치/방향/거리 추적, 무선 포랜식 및 보안관제의 성능을 결정하는 핵심기술로 활용되고 있다. 향후 등장이 예상되는 M2M 무선랜, 무선인지네트워크, 무선센서, 무선차량통신, IoT 무선통신환경에서도 본 기술의 중요성은 더욱 증가하리라 본다. 본고에서는 무선 디바이스의 핑거프린팅 개념을 이해하고, 기술 분류에 따른 세부기법 연구 및 보안응용 동향을 분석함으로써 본 기술의 발전방향을 조망해보고자 한다.

This paper propose a realtime tracking algorithm of mobile object in indoor environment. this proposed system selects location data closer to mobile objects in real time that are results of Triangulation method and DCM(Database Correlation Method)method. Also, this system applies adjusted location data selected by using Kalman filter, and in result it improved location accuracy of transfer object. Be studied in existing the Kalman filter have unstable location data until its settlement because of it extracts current values by using the past the information. However, proposed location tracking system don't apply existent Kalman filter to this system and it permits precisional tracking location by uses more effective methods.

This paper proposes fingerprint-based positioning methods which can be used in a magnetic resonant wireless power transfer(WPT) system and verifies their performance. A new receiver coil with small orthogonal auxiliary coils is proposed to measure magnetic field signals in three axial directions. The magnitude and phase characteristics of the three-axis electromotive force can be obtained by using the proposed coil. To predict a position with the measured values, we propose a lookup table-based method and linear discriminant analysis-based method. For verification, the proposed methods are applied to predict 75 positions of the 6.78 MHz WPT system, and the performances such as accuracy and computation time are compared.
