With the wide application of mobile Internet, location-based service demands are more and
more extensive. In the indoor positioning technology, the location fingerprinting method …

Existing distributed localization methods rarely consider the location privacy preservation
problem, which however is nonnegligible. Regarding location privacy, typical solutions rely …

Location fingerprinting is a technique employed when Global Positioning System (GPS)
positioning breaks down within indoor environments. Since Location Service Providers …

Wi-Fi fingerprint-based localization has attracted significant research interest recently.
Previous works in this area mainly focus on locating an individual user, whereas the …

Fusing fingerprints with mutual distance information potentially improves indoor localization
accuracy. Such distance information may be spatial (eg, via inter-node measurement) or …

Indoor positioning based on existing Wi-Fi fingerprints is becoming more and more common.
Unfortunately, the Wi-Fi fingerprint is susceptible to multiple path interferences, signal …

With the rapid development of GPS-equipped smart mobile devices and mobile computing,
location-based services (LBS) are increasing in popularity in the Internet of Things (IoT) …

In this paper, we propose UILoc, an unsupervised indoor localization scheme that uses a
combination of smartphone sensors, iBeacons and Wi-Fi fingerprints for reliable and …

The increasingly connected world magnifies the threats to users' location privacy. Encryption
protocols offer solutions to privacy concerns, but they are computationally very demanding …

Geomagnetism is promising for indoor localization due to its omnipresence, high stability,
and availability of magnetometers in smartphones. Previous works often fuse it with …
