This work proposes to extend the Java APIs for Bluetooth (JSR82) in order to provide the Location API (JSR179) with a source of indoor-location information. The proposed extension relies on a specific indoor positioning technique to track current location. The adopted technique uses the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) as a good room-fingerprint. We evaluate the effectiveness of the approach by examining preliminary experimental results obtained from our first system prototype.

Abstract

This work proposes to extend the Java APIs for Bluetooth (JSR82) in order to provide the Location API (JSR179) with a source of indoor-location information. The proposed extension relies on a specific indoor positioning technique to track current location. The adopted technique uses the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) as a good room-fingerprint. We evaluate the effectiveness of the approach by examining preliminary experimental results obtained from our first system prototype.
