In the age of automation, the ability to navigate persons and devices in environments has become increasingly important for a rising number of
applications such as in Medical Care, Industry, Logistics and Optimization, etc. With the emergence of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS), the performance of outdoor positioning has become excellent, but many mass market applications require seamless positioning capabilities in all environments. Therefore, indoor
positioning has become a focus of research and development during the past decade with the aim of developing location‐aware applications.
