Abstract

With the rapid development of wireless communication technology and the emergence of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)s applications, high-precision Indoor Positioning Services (IPS) are urgently required. While the Global Positioning System (GPS) has been a key technology for outdoor localization,
its limitation for indoor environments is well known. Ultra-WideBand (UWB) can help provide a very accurate position or localization for indoor harsh propagation environments. This paper focuses on improving the accuracy of the UWB indoor localization system including the Line-of-Sight (LoS) and Non-Line-of-Sight (NLoS) conditions by developing a Machine Learning (ML) algorithm. In this paper, a Naive Bayes (NB) ML algorithm is developed for UWB IPS. The performance of the developed algorithm is evaluated by Receiving Operating Curves (ROC)s. The results indicate that by employing the NB based ML algorithm significantly improves the localization accuracy of the UWB system for both the LoS and NLoS environment.
