Floor Detection with Indoor Vertical Positioning in LTE Femtocell Networks

Vertical positioning is nowadays a topic of high interest in indoor environments, due to the stringent requirements on indoor location accuracy for emergency calls, such as E911. Thus, indoor positioning techniques are investigated to achieve floor detection in order to fulfill these legal mandates. The use of Long Term Evolution (LTE) heterogeneous networks is an attractive solution due to the combination of communications and positioning capabilities. This paper provides an overview of the existing floor detection techniques. Practical results using Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS), inertial sensors, barometer, and LTE signals are obtained in an experimental LTE femtocell network, within a deployment in a two-story building. Probabilities of floor detection above 67% of the cases are found for the positioning solutions assessed.
