Abstract

The most viable strategy to establish a dependable indoor positioning system is by employing the received signal strength (RSS) based fingerprinting technique, which encompasses both the offline and online phases. The offline phase involves constructing a radio map, which can be arduous in vast indoor environments. To tackle this, radio map interpolation is often used to interpolate RSS by utilizing the RSS recorded at a coarser level of known reference points (RPs). This paper proposes a novel RSS-based radio map interpolation to enhance the existing inverse distance weighting (IDW) interpolation technique. The method divides the deployment area into zones and optimizes the density of known RPs in each zone based on the number of access points (APs) with average RSS exceeding the threshold. It allocates higher RP density for the zones with poor AP coverage and reduces it for well-covered zones. Results demonstrates that the proposed method achieves substantial improvements over the baseline IDW scheme in average positioning error of up to 6.58% at the floor level and 3.77% overall
