Poster Abstract: E-Loc: Indoor Localization through Building Electric Wiring

E-Loc is an indoor localization system, which, through using existing indoor electric wiring, detects occupants' location. While many indoor localization technologies require intensive infrastructural supports, E-Loc obtain locations by injecting a signal into the protected earth line of existing residential power network. Caused by human body inside a room, the electromagnetic character changes can be detected to deduce a resident's location. We evaluate our system through experiments inside multiple rooms and our system is able to reach meter-level accuracy.
