| When talking about location-based services,
one of the key factors influencing the overall service quality is
the positioning accuracy that the system can rely upon. Nowadays,
wireless LAN hardware supports the variation of the transmission
power in a wide range. In this paper, two novel algorithms
suitable for extension of common wireless LAN-based positioning
systems are presented. These novel algorithms exploit the
additional information that can be gained by using one or more
non-standard transmission power levels. Our findings indicate
that the overall positioning accuracy and reliability can be
increased with such an approach. |
