Abstract
IEEE 802.11 Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) beacon based indoor localization has gained much attention. However, there has been little investigation relating the beacon measurement to the underlying physical process. The WLAN beacon is usable for indoor location due to the correlation that it has with large scale phenomenon such as distance and obstacles such as walls. Random variations which do not correlate with the environment introduce uncertainty into location predictions. This paper analyzes the effect of two such random processes, namely multipath propagation and measurement noise.
