Single-Anchor Indoor Localization Using ESPAR Antenna

Abstract

In this paper a new single-anchor indoor localization concept employing Electronically Steerable Parasitic Array Radiator (ESPAR) antenna has been proposed. The new concept uses a simple fingerprinting algorithm adopted to work with directional main beam and narrow minimum radiation patterns of ESPAR antenna that scans 360° area around the base station, while the signal strength received from a mobile terminal is being recorded for each configuration. The paper describes the antenna design, necessary fingerprinting algorithm expansion and shows measurements of the proof-of-concept prototype performed within the experimental set-up. Localization results obtained from indoor measurements indicate that the proposed concept can provide better results than the similar approach based on a switched beam antenna introduced in.
