This book provides a comprehensive overview of the entire
landscape of both outdoor and indoor wireless positioning, and
guides the reader step by step in the implementation of wireless
positioning applications on the iPhone. Explanations of fundamental
positioning techniques are given throughout the text, along with
many programming examples, providing the reader with an
independent, practical, and enjoyable learning of the material
while gaining a real feel for the subject.

* Provides an accessible introduction to positioning technologies
such as Global Positioning System and Wi-Fi positioning

* Presents hands-on skills to iOS 5.0 programming for
location-aware applications

* Gives a thorough grounding in signal propagation, line-of-sight
and interference effects for accurate positioning

* Covers the location-aware video streaming and conferencing with
practical iPhone application examples

* Accompanied by a website containing programming code described
in the text and lecture presentation slides for
instructors

This book is primarily intended for anyone who wants to study
wireless localization. It is an ideal textbook for graduate
students who are first learning localization techniques, as well as
advanced undergraduates in computer science interested in
translating localization concepts into real code. Professionals,
engineers and researchers working in location-aware services and
related techniques using mobile positioning and AI technologies
will find this book to be a helpful reference.
