Indoor positioning and tracking systems have become enormous issue in location awareness computing due to its improvement of location detection and positioning identification. The locations are normally detected using position technologies such as Global Positioning System, radio frequency identification, Bluetooth Beacon, Wi-Fi fingerprinting, pedometer and so on. This research presents an indoor positioning system based on Bluetooth low energy 4.0 Beacons; we have implemented Bluetooth signal strength for tracking the specific location and detect the movement of user through Android application platform. Bluetooth low energy was addressed to be an experiment technique to set up into the real environment of interior the building. The signal strength of beacons is evaluated and measured the quality of accuracy as well as the improvement of provide raw data from Beacons to the system to get better performance of the direction map and precise distance from current location to desire’s positioning. A smartphone application detects the location-based Bluetooth signal strength accurately and can be achieved the destination by provided direction map and distance perfectly.

The technologies and sensors embedded in smartphones have contributed to the spread of disruptive applications built on top of Location Based Services (LBSs). Among them, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) has been widely adopted for proximity and localization, as it is a simple but efficient positioning technology. This article presents a database of received signal strength measurements (RSSIs) on BLE signals in a real positioning system. The system was deployed on two buildings belonging to the campus of the University of Extremadura in Badajoz. the database is divided into three different deployments, changing in each of them the number of measurement points and the configuration of the BLE beacons. the beacons used in this work can broadcast up to six emission slots simultaneously. Fingerprinting positioning experiments are presented in this work using multiple slots, improving positioning accuracy when compared with the traditional single slot approach.

Indoor Positioning System

Indoor Positioning System (IPS) is used to locate a person, an object or a location inside a building. IPS is important in providing location-based services, which has recently gain much popularity. The services ease visitors’ navigation at unfamiliar premises. Location-based services depend on the capability of IPS to accurately determine the location of the user, which is a challenging issue in indoor environments. Several wireless technologies are available. In this paper, two of the most widely used IPS technologies are reviewed which are, WiFi and Bluetooth low energy (BLE). Their advantages and disadvantages are reviewed and reported here. Comparison of the systems based on their performance, accuracy and limitations are presented as well.
