AENS: Accurate and Efficient Mobile Phone Indoor Navigation System without WiFi

摘要

As the indoor location-based services are widely used in daily life, we all call for precise localization and low energy consumption application. Besides, getting location information in a short re-sponse time remains a problem in indoor navigation. In this pa-per, we present an accurate and efficient indoor navigation sys-tem called AENS, which only needs available sensors in off-the-shelf smartphones such as accelerometer and gyroscope, completely avoid using energy hungry WiFi module. Combined with simple local map information, AENS is able to guide user to find destinations. The System utilizes those sensors to do Dead-Reckoning dynamically and in real-time, then fitting the predict-ed trajectories to the map information. We evaluate the system in our university library. The result shows that AENS successfully guides the tester to the specified destination, and for every critical node the average localization error is within one-meter.
