...One solution to this has been to layer them above deployed communications systems such as GSM, WiFi, and Bluetooth [1], but this can result in sub-optimal positioning since the communications access points are rarely deployed to provide optimal location geometry and coverage overlap....

...It seems likely we will see the emergence of hybrid systems with a variety of positioning modalities to augment PDR. Absolute position fixes will be obtained opportunistically from whatever is installed in the current building—be it WiFi, Bluetooth, GSM, RFID, or some future communications medium....

...This survey is structured as follows: Section II briefly reviews indoor positioning in general; Section II-B examines the invariants to be exploited in ambulatory motion; Section III surveys the different techniques that have been used to detect steps within sensor data; Section IV looks at the application of Inertial Navigation Systems (INS) research; Section V considers an alternative step-and-heading approach; Section VI surveys the use of particle filters and map-matching techniques to improve location estimates; Section VII considers the hybrid relative/absolute systems that have been proposed; and then Sections VIII and IX conclude by identifying open research areas and future research directions....
