Abstract :
Recently received signal strength (RSS)-based distance estimation technique has been proposed as a low complexity, low-cost solution for mobile communication node with minimum RSSI error. After investigating the existing algorithm of location technique, it is observed that the distribution of RSSI-value at each sample point is fluctuant even in the same position due to shadow fading effect. Therefore, here present a novel method for RSSI error reduction in distance estimation using recursive least square (RLS)-algorithm to the existing deterministic algorithms. The proposed method collects RSSI-values from the mobile communication node to build the probability model. Once the probability models are estimated for different standard deviation related to path loss exponent using adaptive filtering in real time, it is possible to accurately determine the distance between the mobile communication node and fixed communication node. From simulation results it is shown, that the accuracy of RSSI-value for mobile communication node in real time distance estimation is improved in changing environments.
