Cluster-Based RF Fingerprint Positioning Using LTE and WLAN Outdoor Signals
2015
In this paper we evaluate user-equipment (UE) positioning performance of three cluster-based RF fingerprinting methods using LTE and WLAN signals. Real-life LTE and WLAN data were collected for the evaluation purpose using consumer cellular-mobile handset utilizing ‘Nemo Handy’ drive test software tool. Test results of cluster-based methods were compared to the conventional grid-based RF fingerprinting. The cluster-based methods do not require grid-cell layout and training signature formation as compared to the gridbased method. They utilize LTE cell-ID searching technique to reduce the search space for clustering operation. Thus UE position estimation is done in short time with less comput…
An efficient cluster-based outdoor user positioning using LTE and WLAN signal strengths
2015
In this paper we propose a novel cluster-based RF fingerprinting method for outdoor user-equipment (UE) positioning using both LTE and WLAN signals. It uses a simple cost effective agglomerative hierarchical clustering with Davies-Bouldin criterion to select the optimal cluster number. The positioning method does not require training signature formation prior to UE position estimation phase. It is capable of reducing the search space for clustering operation by using LTE cell-ID searching criteria. This enables the method to estimate UE positioning in short time with less computational expense. To validate the cluster-based positioning real-time field measurements were collected using readi…
