An Android-Based Mechanism For Energy Efficient

This document analyzes and compares the energy efficiency of indoor/outdoor localization using the Indoor Atlas indoor localization system on Android devices. The existing system uses indoor/outdoor detection and Wi-Fi RSS ranging for indoor localization. The proposed system introduces Indoor Atlas which uses geomagnetic positioning to more precisely locate devices indoors. An experiment is conducted to analyze the battery consumption of different localization sensors and compare the energy efficiency of the existing and proposed systems.

Analysis and Comparison of Energy Efficiency

of Android based Indoor/Outdoor Localization


using Indoor Atlas for Indoor Localization
ABSTRCT
Today, everyone is using smartphones and there are many application using
location features. Many sensors and used determine accurate location of a
smartphone in indoor or outdoor. However, the average user may not realize the
high energy costs of using location services (namely the GPS) or may not make
smart decisions regarding when to enable or disable location services. As a result, a
mechanism that can make these decisions on the user’s behalf can significantly
improve a smartphone’s battery life. In this work, we analyze the energy
consumption of a smartphone by sampling battery life when using different
location features. We propose an indoor localization method using indoor atlas.
This provides a unique cloud platform that runs a disruptive geomagnetic
positioning in its core to accurately pinpoint a location inside a building. Based on
our energy analysis and implementation of our proposed system, we provide
experimental results - monitoring battery life over time
EXISTING SYSTEM
Existing system provide an analysis of the two localization methods
available to modern smartphones and conjecture that the addition of an indoor
localization method as well as the ability to detect indoor or outdoor context can
improve battery life and increase location accuracy. To test this, we implement an
indoor/outdoor detection service and a simple indoor localization method into the
location services framework of the Android operating system. In our design,
present system implement an indoor/outdoor detection system modified from
another author’s previous work and implement Wi-Fi RSS ranging as the prototype
indoor localization method. In practice, any such indoor localization method can be
used to infer the user’s location and future work can focus on this aspect to further
increase location accuracy. In this case, the detection restricts the energy efficiency
of our modified FusedLocaitonProvider. The detection accuracy also has a large
effect on the energy consumption under practical use.
PROPOSED SYSTEM
Apart from the existing system the proposed system introduces an alternate
indoor localization system. This uses indoor atlas to acquire more precise location
of smartphone in indoors. Then the energy conception is calculated by analyzing
the battery charge consumed by different sensors in acquiring the location. This
results are then compared with energy conception resulted by existing system to
analyze the performance of both systems
