Wi-Fi Based Indoor Next Location Prediction Using Mixed State-Weighted Markov-Chain Model

Abstract: I. INTRODUCTIONNowadays, Wi-Fi enabled connectivity has become one of the standard functions for smart phones and tablets with the trend of increasing number of indoor Wi-Fi enabled venues. For example, shopping malls provide free Wi-Fi connection to attract more shoppers. These free Wi-Fi services can bring more traffic to increase the visit volume of the shopping malls. Wi-Fi is also a "must-have" for retail stores [1]. Retailers want to be the special preference of their customers, in order to do that, they… Show more

“…However, unlike the outdoor positioning system (GPS), indoor positioning systems such as Bluetooth, Infrared, RFID, or Wi-Fi have only been mature in recent years and started to emerge in commercial markets [9]. While much more researches focusing on trajectory prediction in the context of outdoor positioning systems have been published [10], there is still not sufficient related work on the same application in indoor spaces.…”

“…Existing works aiming at predicting indoor movements employ the method of pattern mining and variance of Markov Chain [1,10,17,19,25,26]; however, the unique feature of semantic information in indoor environment such as shop categories has not been studied for prediction due to the limitation of their data source. What is more, their methods are only tested on small data sets, which only contain a small number of users or trajectory points, and in [19], the datasets used were collected in a controlled environment: data was gathered from participants who are aware of the Additional information about the physical environment is provided by the owner of the mall including floor plans of the stores, the shop categories, and the location of Wi-Fi access point.…”

“…Existing work trying to predict indoor movements employed the technique of pattern mining and variance of Markov chain [1,2,27,[35][36][37], but the temporal information and semantic section information in the trajectory were not used. What is more, the aforementioned methods were only validated on small or synthetic datasets (7 POIs in Lam et al [37], only 72 hours' data in [1], only 48 hours' data in [38]).…”

“…During the past decades, a large number of studies have concentrated on predicting the further whereabouts of human beings [1][2][3][4]. However, with the prevalence of global positioning system (GPS), the majority of works are mainly focused on outdoor trajectory prediction, but researches show that people tend to spend over 87% of their lifetime in indoor settings, for instance, conference rooms, shopping centers, transition terminals, and private homes [5,6].…”
