Abstract
Proximity estimation is a task that estimates the distance between a reference point and a selected object. Proximity estimation allows the possibility of creating applications that are based on proximity from the reference point. With the increased penetration of smartphone with multiple sensors, it is possible to utilize one of the many built-in sensors for proximity estimation such as Global Positioning System (GPS), Bluetooth Low-Energy (BLE), and Wi-Fi approaches in proximity estimation. The paper explores the approaches before expanding on utilization of Wi-Fi approaches to proximity estimation in a practical outdoor field test on multiple smartphone and mobile devices to examine the suitability and issues that may arise when utilizing the approach. ฉ 2017, Khon Kaen University,Research and Technology Transfer Affairs Division.
