Abstract
The method of obtaining the physicalco-ordinates of a device is known as localization. Locationinformation of the wireless devices in a network has manyapplications. Generally we use GPS (Global PositioningSystem) to get the location but it fails to provide the service inan indoor environment. Therefore we need a local positioningsystem, which can provide the relative location information ina network. Many approaches has been made for wirelesslocalization using the distance obtained through Time ofArrival (ToA), Time Difference of Arrival (TDoA), ReceivedSignal Strength (RSS) etc.. The proposed m e t h o d uses RSSwith minimum overhead compared to conventionalmultiliteration techniques. Due to the growing importance ofsecurity in Wi-Fi, the location information has been usedfor intrusion detection. The proposed model compares theintruder information with preset profile of genuine devicesfor full proof detection of the intrusion. It has been observedthat the model outperforms its counterparts.
