Abstract

Personal navigation systems enjoy great popularity. This work presents an indoor self-localization system that resembles outdoor GPS-Positioning. An user-friendly Bluetooth-based solution has been implemented that provides the user with orientation information within a building. Bluetooth technology allows to keep a low budget and low power system. Our region-based localization method is tailored to run completely on the personal platform, and though assures user privacy. Our approach stands out with platform independence, privacy and power awareness.
