Software platform for wireless indoor localization planning based on the strength of received radio signal

Radiofrequency positioning problem within indoor space becomes significant with respect to the specific area for which the radiolocation is required. The area of interest may be an apartment, shop or storage area of any shape and size. The specificity of the space defines various requirements on the radiolocation system and the need for software that would facilitate the planning of such a system is obvious. Using well-known empirical and deterministic models for propagation of electromagnetic waves in enclosed spaces and precise analysis of specific closed areas, localization based on the RSS (Received Signal Strength) method should give good positioning results in any enclosed space. Software solution that was developed in this work allows you to determine the optimal position of the receiver on the walls of any space that is selected as an area in which implementation of a system of RSS indoor localization is required. The optimal position of the receiver provides precise and reliable localization within the indoor enclosure. The software can be used to optimize the indoor localization of people or objects, with the requirement that special radio frequency tags or radio frequency transmitters are mounted on them. The software supports the ability to import an arbitrary layout of indoor space over which optimization will be carried out from AutoCAD or a CAD tool.
