43 Facing RSSI = Direct + Reflected 20 db + 5 db

44 Facing RSSI = Direct + Reflected 20 db + 5 db = 25 db

45 Facing RSSI = Direct + Reflected 20 db + 5 db = 25 db Blocking Direct + Reflected

46 Facing RSSI = Direct + Reflected 20 db + 5 db = 25 db Blocking Direct + Reflected 10 db + 15 db = 25 db

47 But how do we estimate direct path energy? Using off-the-shelf WiFi cards? 17

65 Performance Evaluation n Used off-the-shelf Intel 5300 cards to obtain direct path energy n Evaluated SpinLoc at various settings: Engineering Building 30 locations 3-5 APs Cafeteria 25 locations 3-4 APs n Compare with RSSI based trilateration scheme 23

66 Angle Estimation Error 50 Mean angle error SNR in db 24

67 Angle Estimation Error 50 Mean angle error SNR in db Average error = 20 degrees, for APs stronger than 20dB RSSI 24

68 Localization Error CDF Using only angle Using angle + RSSI Using only RSSI Localization error in meter Average localization error = 5 meters 25

69 SpinLoc: Closing Thoughts n AoA based localization without wardriving Human body attenuates direct path to APs SpinLoc identifies this direct path, extract AoA Triangulates to estimate location SpinLoc Limitations: n Requires user involvement: spin once to know your location n Phone listens to WiFi traffic while user spins May not be able to transmit data to the internet while spinning n Depends on existence of direct path from AP May be heavily attenuated n Require extensive testing in crowded environments 26
