Abstract:

An indoor positioning system (IPS) is defined as the network of devices which is widely used to wirelessly locate objects under the same roof using radio waves, acoustic signals, magnetic fields and other sensory information grasped by mobile devices. Reliable indoor positioning is a base for emerging indoor location based services. Bluetooth - Indoor Positioning System is said to be the intersection of Indoor Positioning Systems and Bluetooth Technology. Similarly, Wi-Fi Indoor Positioning System is the intersection of Indoor Positioning Systems and Wi-Fi Technology. This paper presents a comparative analysis of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth using IPS.
