Abstract

Indoor localization is a technique utilized to estimate the locations of objects and persons tracking. Time of Arrival (ToA) and Recieved Signal Strength (RSS) are the most too important techniques use for such tasks according to its easy implantation and acceptable accuracy. In this paper, AoA is utilized to estimate targets that are deployed in a selected case study building. Wireless InSite (WI) packages are utilized to simulate the case study model and apply our experiment. ToA and RSS are used to estimate distances between the transmitter and each target, then AoA is applied to locate each target. The results show that the errors between actual and estimated distance are in the range of (0 - 1) and (0.07 - 7.4) for ToA and RSS respectively. The achieved results show that AoA is an effective technique for indoor localization.
