Issued without a dust jacket. -- Indoor navigation and tracking demand solutions beyond GPS, and this volume delivers a rigorous analysis of the full spectrum of indoor positioning technologies to guide researchers, engineers, and system designers. -- Beginning with historical navigation milestones linking time, space, and satellite development, the book moves to define the indoor positioning problem and its practical constraints. It introduces the theoretical basis behind approaches such as angle, distance, Doppler, inertial, and image-based measurements before comparing around forty candidate technologies. These are grouped by range: proximity systems like QR codes, NFC, and barcodes; room-restricted techniques using infrared, laser, lidar, and ultrasound; multi-room systems based on radar, RFID, and UWB; and building-scale technologies including Bluetooth, WiFi, LiFi, image SLAM, and inertial sensors. Special attention is given to adaptations of GNSS indoors and the trade-offs of pseudolites, repeaters, and hybrid models. The text also covers block- and city-wide methods through mobile networks, LoRa, TV, and radio broadcasting. Later chapters analyze fusion and hybridization techniques, collaborative schemes, and the critical role of mapping for room-level navigation and context-aware services. The discussion culminates in scenarios exploring the potential transformation of everyday life once seamless indoor positioning becomes reliable across infrastructures. -- This book's distinctiveness lies in treating indoor positioning both as a set of technical methods and as a deployment problem shaped by range, infrastructure, and application needs. Unlike narrower treatments, it catalogues a wide variety of sensor, radio, and mapping solutions while candidly addressing their limitations. These comparative baselines remain essential for current design of location-based services, IoT applications, and smart building systems, where interoperability and performance tuning drive success. It is valuable not only for engineers and students in wireless systems and signal processing, but also for industrial developers seeking feasibility assessments and frameworks for technology selection. Its clarity in distinguishing technique from technology makes it a durable reference for understanding how indoor navigation can be practically realized. …
