Abstract:
A method including obtaining location estimates of a wireless mobile device inside a structure based on wireless signals transmitted by the wireless mobile device and received at a plurality of wireless access points, wherein the inside of the structure is represented by a plurality of path segments; modeling a transition from a first estimated location of the wireless mobile device to a second estimated location of the wireless mobile device by minimizing a ratio of an angle to a length between the first estimated location and the second estimated location; selecting, based on the modeling a particular path segment of the plurality of path segments; and aligning the second estimated location of the mobile device to the particular path segment. An apparatus and a computer-readable storage media implementing the method are also disclosed.
