  • Due to rapid increase in demand for services which depends upon exact location of devices leads to the development of numerous Wi-Fi positioning systems. It is very difficult to find the accurate position of a device in indoor environment due to substantial development of structures. There are many algorithms to determine the indoor location but they require expensive software and hardware. Hence receiving signals strength (RSS) based algorithms are implemented to find the self-positioning. In this paper Newton-Raphson, Gauss-Newton and Steepest descent algorithms are implemented to find the accurate location of Wi-Fi receiver in Koneru Lakshmaiah (K L) University, Guntur, Andhra Pradesh, India. From the results it is evident that Newton -Raphson method is better in providing accurate position estimations.
