摘要：Various techniques that employ Global Positioning System(GPS) signals such as A-GPS and GPS transmitters, have been introduced with the hope to provide a solution for indoor positioning detection. Indoor positioning system (IPS) is a term that is used for network devices used to wirelessly locate objects or people inside building. The study is based on the issue in order to determine the position of an object in indoor environment or inside a building. The problems arise when the position of an object inside a building cannot be determined using GPS. We proposed the implementation of trilateration technique to determine the position of users in indoor areas based on Wi-Fi signal strengths from access points (AP) within the indoor vicinity. In this paper, percentage of signal strengths obtained from Wi-Fi analyzer in a smartphone were converted into distance between users and each AP. A user's indoor position could then be determined using a formula proposed based on trilateration technique.
