This paper presents a localisation algorithm using unique network parameters exhibited at different physical locations. The algorithm computes location of devices based on relative multi-layer network performances between a node and devices. All the devices and node can be mobile and the algorithm does not require any stationary infrastructure as an anchor. Experimental tests were conducted to locate an empty parking lot in a carpark. It was shown that the algorithm achieved 87% accuracies of locating an empty parking lot.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
