This book explores innovations in indoor positioning systems (IPS). An IPS is a network that continuously and in real-time detects the position of a person or an object within indoor environments such as warehouses, buildings, rooms, and so on. IPS has many applications in inventory-tracking industries, medical applications, retail, military operations, and other commercial sectors. The book provides readers with essential information on the basic theory of IPS systems, their architecture and modules, algorithms for optimizing the positioning of people and objects, as well as the innovations, limitations, and future trends within the IPS field. It highlights key features of IPS, such as accuracy, coverage and scalability, adaptation to environmental conditions, and cost. The book also discusses the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into IPS. By leveraging AI technology, IPS devices can achieve remarkable accuracy and adapt effectively to dynamic environmental conditions and human behaviour. AI enables IPS systems to not only locate individuals but also to understand and predict their movements and behaviours in indoor spaces. The book also explores novel localization techniques for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and discusses the development of radio frequency (RF) IPS modules and printed antennas. Additionally, the book discusses how MIC(Microwave Integrated Circuits) and MMIC(Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuits) technologies can be employed in developing RF devices, including transmitters and receivers for IPS systems. Microstrip mono-pulse antennas are presented as effective tools for determining position and direction in both IPS and radar systems.
