Indoor positioning system - Locating and positioning

1 local positioning system and so on do not offer other but detecting an object in a certain known fixed

location, report a measured location or just report the presence of the

object in such location.

Real Time Locating System

1 RTLS are a form of local positioning system, and do not usually refer to

GPS, mobile phone tracking. Location information usually does not

include speed, direction, or spatial orientation.

Local positioning system

1 A 'local positioning system (LPS)' is a navigation system that provides location

information in all weather, anywhere within the coverage of the network, where there is

an unobstructed Line-of-sight propagation|line of sight to three or more signaling Electric

beacon|beacons of which the exact position on earth is known. A special type of LPS is the Real-time locating system; which also allows real-time tracking of an object or person in a

confined area such as a building.https://store.theartofservice.com/the-local-positioning-system-toolkit.html

Local positioning system - Use

1 Unlike Global Positioning System|GPS or other global navigation satellite

systems, 'local positioning systems' don't provide global coverage.

Instead, they use (a set of) beacons which have a limited range, hence requiring the user to be near these. Beacons include cellphone|cellular

base stations, Wi-Fi positioning system|Wi-Fi access points, and radio

broadcast towers.https://store.theartofservice.com/the-local-positioning-system-toolkit.html

Local positioning system - Use

1 Nowadays, local positioning systems are often used as complementary (and in some cases alternative) positioning technology to GPS,

especially in areas where GPS does not reach or is weak, for example, Indoor positioning system|inside buildings, or urban canyons.

Local positioning using cellular and broadcast towers can be used on cell phones that do not have a GPS receiver. Even if the phone has a GPS receiver, battery life will be extended if

cell tower location accuracy is sufficient.https://store.theartofservice.com/the-local-positioning-system-toolkit.html

1 Others, such as Mystic Manor at Hong Kong Disneyland, rely on Wi-Fi

and RFID-based local positioning systems.

manage these sensors
