Power based positioning approach for indoor wireless local area network

摘要

Wireless Local Area Network is one of the important technologies of computer networking. An emerging Wireless Local Area Network standard given by IEEE is 802.11ac. 802.11 ac is exclusively a 5GHz technology. It is faster compared to 802.11n. Huge number of Personal Computers like 2-in-1s, desktops, and laptops are equipped with Wireless-AC adapters. Empirical study is conducted to form a path-loss model in the Faraday Chamber, the path-loss exponent determined from this empirical study improves the accuracy in relationship between distance and Received Signal Strength Indicator of the Wireless Local Area Network.
