This book delivers concise coverage of classical methods and new
developments related to indoor location-based services. It collects
results from isolated domains including geometry, artificial
intelligence, statistics, cooperative algorithms, and distributed
systems and thus provides an accessible overview of fundamental
methods and technologies. This makes it an ideal starting point for
researchers, students, and professionals in pervasive computing.
Location-based services are services using the location of a mobile
computing device as their primary input. While such services are
fairly easy to implement outside buildings thanks to accessible global
positioning systems and high-quality environmental information, the
situation inside buildings is fundamentally different. In general,
there is no simple way of determining the position of a moving target
inside a building without an additional dedicated infrastructure.The
book’s structure is learning oriented, starting witha short
introduction to wireless communication systems and basic positioning
techniques and ending with advanced features like event detection,
simultaneous localization and mapping, and privacy aspects. Readers
who are not familiar with the individual topics will be able to work
through the book from start to finish. At the same time all chapters
are self-contained to support readers who are already familiar with
some of the content and only want to pick selected topics that are of
particular interest.
