Abstract:
The REALTIME INDOOR LOCATION SYSTEM protects people by
providing real-time information about their location when in need and the User’s
benefits from a unique platform combining indoor Positioning with the solutions
automated emergency alarm handling. The Real Time Location System integrates
several technologies in one solution Like Bluetooth for indoor positioning, Support
for Smartphones, and TETRA radios as well as GSM panic alarm devices. Locate
employees using any always discoverable Bluetooth device, including DMR &
TETRA radios, Android Smartphones and the Bluetooth badge. The system provides
real-time location data using strategically placed Bluetooth Beacons/Receivers
connected to the buildings LAN. Beacons/Receivers are continually monitored for
disconnection and have a range of 5-50 meters (subject to the environment). The more
Beacons/Receivers installed, the more precise the location data. The issue is how by
few number of beacons, it can get high percentage of efficiency of coverage.
There are many solutions and methods that can be used for real time indoor
positioning system, but due to the obstacles and interference that make the signal
propagate less, there’s no single solution to solve this problem. There’s no single
standard method that our competitors are all using. We are aiming to build a real time
indoor positioning system that will be able to operate effectively in any indoor
infrastructure and be user friendly for the client. In this paper we will go deeply in this
system and its features.
