Abstract

Trajectory monitoring based on the Global Positioning System (GPS) is the premise of providing all kinds of the personalized services based on the users' positions on the smart phones. GPS trajectory monitoring could be used to solve the elderly life monitoring which is a serious social problem in China. Owing to smart phones' energy consumption and computing resource constraints, this paper proposes a kind of GPS non-uniform sampling algorithm which is applied to the elderly daily behavior monitoring system based on the Android platform. The experimental results showed that the algorithm can significantly reduce the sampling points and the power consumption of GPS positioning module.
