Abstract
Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) fingerprinting is a remarkable approach developed by modern science to detect the user’s location efficiently. Today, the Global Positioning System (GPS) is used to keep track of our current location for outdoor positioning. In GPS technology, satellite signals cannot reach indoor environments as they are shielded from obstructions so that indoor environments with a lack of Line of Sight (LoS) do not provide enough satellite signal accuracy. Since indoor environments are very difficult to track, thus, a wide variety of techniques for dealing with them have been suggested. The best way to offer an indoor positioning service with the current technology is Wi-Fi since most commercial infrastructure is well equipped with Wi-Fi routers. The use of Wi-Fi fingerprinting techniques is becoming more common in the field of indoor positioning systems (IPS). For the purpose of indoor location localization, each method for obtaining a Wi-Fi fingerprint has been analyzed and discussed in this work. In this study, the majority of the algorithms that are associated with Wi-Fi fingerprinting have been interpreted, and the earlier works of other researchers have been critically evaluated, in order to get a more in-depth understanding of how the Wi-Fi fingerprinting process works.
