SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR OBJECT LOCALIZATION IN AN INDOOR ENVIRONMENT

摘要

A system for object localization in an indoor environment, such as a passenger cabin of a vehicle, in particular of an aircraft, comprises a wireless communication infrastructure adapted to facilitate wireless communication within the indoor environment via a wireless communication network and comprising at least one wireless access point adapted to provide user devices access to the wireless communication network within the indoor environment, wherein the wireless access point is further adapted to acquire signal propagation data of wireless signals transmitted over the wireless communication network along multiple propagation paths; and a computing element configured to analyze the signal propagation data and extract localization data from the signal propagation data, the localization data specifying the position of objects located within the indoor environment.
