Abstract: The coordinates of the position of a wireless access point are the main goal in the wireless localization technique. In common, outdoor wireless localization techniques use the trilateration method by installing several devices used as anchors, and this makes the cost for installation and maintenance higher. An outdoor wireless localization system that is more efficient, effective, and flexible but still accurate and precise becomes indispensable. This paper proposes a wireless position estimation system based on a received signal strength (RSS) value called WLAN Position Estimation System (WLAN PES) integrating WLAN Distance Estimation System (WLAN DES) with WLAN PES formula. To confirm the accuracy and precision of WLAN PES, this paper focuses on the analysis of WLAN PES testing conducted at ten points in which each measurement point had coordinates and angles that are different from one another. The test point was made to circle the target WLAN access point. The distance of each test point was 1000 meters against the targeted WLAN access point. In each of these test points, the WLAN finder reads RSSfnd. Then, the system calculated the estimated distance value using WLAN DES based on the RSSfnd value. After the system obtained a distance estimation value, the estimated position value was calculated with the WLAN PES formula. In addition to the distance estimation value, WLAN PES formula required some variables such as latitude and longitude coordinates from the WLAN finder position, and the bearing of the WLAN finder. WLAN PES was found to be capable of determining the estimated position coordinates of a WLAN access point with an accuracy value and precision value of 93.26% and 98.77%, respectively.

Keywords: WLAN position estimation system; WLAN distance estimation system; accuracy and precision wireless localization; efficient and flexible outdoor wireless localization
