- Resumen
This doctoral thesis focuses on developing and evaluating mobile device-based collaborative techniques to enhance the position accuracy of traditional indoor positioning systems based on RSSI (i.e., lateration and fingerprinting) in real-world conditions. During the research, first, a comprehensive systematic review of Collaborative Indoor Positioning Systems (CIPSs) was conducted to obtain a state-of-the-art; second, extensive experimental data collections considering mobile devices and collaborative scenarios were performed to create a mobile device-based BLE database and BLE and Wi-Fi radio maps for testing our collaborative and non-collaborative indoor positioning approaches; third, traditional methods to estimate distance and position were evaluated to present their limitations and challenges and two novel approaches to improve distance and positioning accuracy were proposed; finally, our proposed CIPSs using Multilayer Perceptron Artificial Neural Networks were developed to enhance the accuracy of BLE¿RSSI lateration and fingerprinting-KNN methods and evaluated under real-world conditions to demonstrate its feasibility and benefits.
