Abstract

We demonstrate a generic, user-configurable toolkit for generating different types of indoor mobility data for real-world buildings. Our prototype generates the desired data in a three-layer pipeline. The Infrastructure Layer accepts industry-standard digital building information (DBI) files to generate the host indoor environment, allowing users to configure the generation of a variety of positioning devices, such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, RFID, etc. The Moving Object Layer offers the functionality of defining objects or trajectories, with configurable indoor moving patterns, distribution models, and sampling frequencies. The Positioning Layer generates synthetic signal strength measurements known as raw RSSI 1 measurements according to the positioning device data and trajectory data generated at relevant layers. It also generates different types of indoor positioning data through the customization of all typical indoor positioning methods on the raw RSSI data.
