Popis: Mobile robots have the capability to work in real-time autonomously. Autonomous behavior is strictly dependent on knowing the position of the mobile robot. The positioning of a mobile robot in an indoor area is a difficult task for only one sensor information is used. We proposed a system and method to locate the mobile robot via fusing signals from WIFI and odometer data via particle filter. In this study, the Particle filter is a well-known filter that is used for indoor positioning of mobile robots. The proposed system includes two parts that are RFKON system and evarobot for data collection and experiments. The Received Signal Strength (RSS) measurements of the WiFi access points that are located in any environment are used to locate a stationary mobile robot in one floor area via SIS Particle Filter. RSS measurements from the RFKON database are used and the average location error is 0.7606 and 0.1495 m for 300 and 1000 particles respectively.
