EMERGENCY RESCUE METHOD BASED ON SMART TERMINAL LOCATION DETECTION USING WI-FI ACCESSPOINT SCANNING, AND COMPUTER-READABLE RECORD MEDIUM FOR THE SAME

摘要

The present invention relates to a technique for accurately determining a geographical location of a smart terminal by using wireless LAN access point scanning so as to efficiently provide an emergency rescue service. More particularly, the present invention provides a technique for precisely detecting a location of a smart terminal in a congested area, such as an urban area in particular, by using a wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) access point that is installed close to the smart terminal and a GPS system as well as a mobile communication network which has been in use in an emergency situation so as to provide emergency rescue in a prompt and effective manner. The present invention is advantageous in that an emergency rescue service can be provided promptly since the location of the smart terminal is detected with the maximum precision even indoors or under the ground, where GPS signal reception is hindered, in a heavily populated area such as an urban area. In addition, battery consumption of the smart terminal can be reduced in determining the geographical location of the smart terminal, and thus communication via the smart terminal can be maintained until emergency rescue is made. Also, the present invention allows a processing load of the smart terminal to be reduced, and thus can be realized without any problem even on a low-price smart phone.
