Abstract:

This work evaluated the indoor navigation with the WLAN-fingerprinting technique and k-inverse harmonic mean clustering. During offline phase, the RSS of references node are grouped by KIHM clustering algorithm. In addition, the flag parameter that means the member of each cluster will be added to database. Then, the KIHM membership values will be used to find the cluster and using fingerprinting technique to estimate the target node positions. The best result derived from the KIHM clustering techniques with 3 clusters. The average distance error is approximate 3.73 meters with the 18.41% no error estimated position.
