Abstract

Two types of applications use indoor positioning: services linked with mobility, such as guided tour or meeting systems, and the active security of wireless network which locates intrusive unauthorized mobile terminals. Indoor positioning cannot be managed by a geostationnary system like GPS. In fact, current researches are conducted to conceive indoor positioning using wireless networks such as WiFi. In this paper, we study such a mechanism and compare our accuracy results to other solutions. This positioning function is combined to a mobility prediction mechanism and constitute the mobility service in a Video on Demand system called MoVie (Mobile Video).
