Abstract

Indoor positioning plays an important role in a wide range of applications, such as autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), healthcare smart homes, and industrial automation. Popular positioning methods include received signal strength indicator (RSSI)-based positioning, proximity-based positioning, angle-of-arrival (AoA)-based positioning, and fingerprinting. Each method has specific trade-offs regarding accuracy, cost, and deployment complexity. Recent research has focused on solutions to improve accuracy. These include noise filtering techniques, such as Kalman and particle filters, as well as the use of machine learning to optimize the positioning model. In particular, graph-based positioning methods have demonstrated the ability to improve accuracy by optimizing the spatial relationship between landmarks. In addition, regression-based error estimation helps predict and correct positioning errors, improving system reliability. This paper presents a focused review of state-of-the-art techniques to enhance indoor positioning systems' accuracy. They consist of filtering, hybrid methods, and Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based optimization, offering a practical reference for enhancing system performance in real-world applications. By reinforcing recent developments, this review serves as a foundation for researchers and engineers seeking effective positioning solutions for AMR and smart environments. Looking ahead, hybrid positioning systems integrate multiple technologies. AI and machine learning enhance them. Hybrid positioning systems are expected to offer greater accuracy, flexibility, and scalability. These advancements will be essential in optimizing operations and enhancing user experiences in future automation applications and the Internet of Things(IoT).
