Indoor positioning systems (IPS) are emerging technologies due to an increasing popularity and demand in location based service (LBS) indoors because traditional positioning systems such as GPS are limited to outdoor applications. Several IPS are proposed in literature, having the Wi-Fi based positioning system (WPS) as the most promising due to its superior accuracy and wide infrastructure deployment, making it a cost-effective choice. Several WPS have been proposed in the past, from which the best results are shown by so-called fingerprint-based systems. This thesis proposes an indoor positioning system which integrates traditional WLAN fingerprinting by using the received signal strength indicator (RSSI) with channel estimates for improving the classification accuracy with a low number of Access Points (APs). The channel measurements such as impulse response or others, characterize complex indoor area with strong multipath which is quite unique for each indoor location, thus providing a unique signature for better location dependent radio-map pattern recognition. The thesis first proposes an instrumentation design for extracting channel estimates using a Software-Defined Radio (SDR) environment. The instrumentation is designed using an NI-USRP peripheral and LabVIEW software. The wireless measurements are captured in offline mode, surveying the radio-map of a known indoor area. Then indoor positioning using channel estimates is proposed for several scenarios with low number (one and two) access points (APs) when traditional fingerprinting technologies do not work well. Three surveying granularities in grid locations are studied: 4, 8 and 12 ft. A Support Vector Machine (SVM) is used as the algorithm for pattern recognition of different locations based on the samples taken from RSSI and channel estimation magnitudes.

Wireless positioning using radio signals has received considerable attention in the field of navigation and tracking. However, the existing navigation systems that are based on satellites cannot provide accurate position estimation in urban and indoor environments due to shadowing and various sources of noise and interference. As a result, the wireless indoor positioning is emerging as a new important research area, its services will be widely used in the future. In this work, an effective wireless indoor positioning has been developed based on the opportune signals of IEEE 802.11 standards. The problem of highly resolving the propagation time delays, the relative direction of arrivals, and the relative amplitudes of multipath signals has been addressed for a high-resolution wireless positioning system. The developed algorithms use a very efficient computational methodology for real time implementation. In addition, non-iterative weighted least square estimators are presented to estimate the mobile unit coordinates based on the estimated observations. The problem of obstruction of the direct path due to the harsh nature of indoor environments has also been investigated.

This book provides a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of wireless indoor localization for ubiquitous applications. The past decade has witnessed a flourishing of WiFi-based indoor localization, which has become one of the most popular localization solutions and has attracted considerable attention from both the academic and industrial communities. Specifically focusing on WiFi fingerprint based localization via crowdsourcing, the book follows a top-down approach and explores the three most important aspects of wireless indoor localization: deployment, maintenance, and service accuracy. After extensively reviewing the state-of-the-art literature, it highlights the latest advances in crowdsourcing-enabled WiFi localization. It elaborated the ideas, methods and systems for implementing the crowdsourcing approach for fingerprint-based localization. By tackling the problems such as: deployment costs of fingerprint database construction, maintenance overhead of fingerprint database updating, floor plan generation, and location errors, the book offers a valuable reference guide for technicians and practitioners in the field of location-based services. As the first of its kind, introducing readers to WiFi-based localization from a crowdsourcing perspective, it will greatly benefit and appeal to scientists and researchers in mobile and ubiquitous computing and related areas.

Wireless sensor networks, due to their various applications in many fields and limited power consumption, have attracted much attention recently. Most previous methods have focused on providing energy-saving strategies to elevate the lifetime of sensor networks. Another aggressive but different approach is to wirelessly recharge sensor nodes to increase the lifetime of the sensor networks. This book collects articles that address state-of-the-art technologies and new developments for wireless rechargeable sensor networks (WRSNs), including the latest hot topics such as charger deployment, charger scheduling, wireless energy transfer, mobile charger design, energy-harvesting technique, and energy provisioning. We believe that the accepted articles present the most up-to-date progress in algorithms and theory for robust wireless sensor networks with respect to different networking problems.

Software is the essential enabling means for science and the new economy. It helps us to create a more reliable, flexible and robust society. But software often falls short of our expectations. Current methodologies, tools, and techniques remain expensive and are not yet sufficiently reliable, while many promising approaches have proved to be no more than case-by-case oriented methods. This book contains extensively reviewed papers from the thirteenth International Conference on New Trends in software Methodology, Tools and Techniques (SoMeT_14), held in Langkawi, Malaysia, in September 2014. The conference provides an opportunity for scholars from the international research community to discuss and share research experiences of new software methodologies and techniques, and the contributions presented here address issues ranging from research practices and techniques and methodologies to proposing and reporting solutions for global world business. The emphasis has been on human-centric software methodologies, end-user development techniques and emotional reasoning, for an optimally harmonized performance between the design tool and the user. Topics covered include the handling of cognitive issues in software development to adapt it to the user's mental state and intelligent software design in software utilizing new aspects on conceptual ontology and semantics reflected on knowledge base system models. This book provides an opportunity for the software science community to show where we are today and where the future may take us.
