Open publisher page 2 citations

Abstract

Location-based services (LBS) provide useful information to users based on the current user location or a given location. Therefore, one of the key techniques for LBS development is positioning, or identifying the coordinate of the spot where the user is currently located. For outdoor LBS, the GPS (Global Positioning System) provides a general solution for positioning. However, discovering a general solution for indoor positioning is still a hot research topic. This paper reviews recently published indoor positioning techniques.
