    The increasing adoption of indoor localization has increased demand for location-based services (LBS) to enhance daily efficiency. Fingerprinting is a widely used method due to its high accuracy and resilience to multipath fading, but it requires dense sampling and extensive data collection, making large-scale site surveys labor-intensive and often impractical. To alleviate these challenges, interpolation and regression-based methods have been explored for their scalability and reduced manual effort. However, these approaches often struggle to model the complex, multimodal nature of real-world Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) distributions. To address this limitation, we propose a novel Region-Aware Adaptive Ensemble Regressor (RAER) for generating synthetic RSSI values. RAER adapts to the statistical characteristics of the training data to efficiently produce high-quality virtual RSSI maps with low computational cost. The model integrates two components: 1) a clustering algorithm that partitions the radio map based on fingerprint signal similarity, and 2) an adaptive ensemble regression framework that combines multiple base regressors using weighted averaging, where weights are inversely proportional to each regressor’s mean absolute error (MAE). By prioritizing regressors with lower localization error, RAER improves the realism of synthetic RSSI data and enhances radio map accuracy. Experimental evaluations conducted in a multi-story university building demonstrate that RAER can reconstruct radio maps, which reduces the need for site surveys by up to 25%. Furthermore, it improves localization accuracy by 5.06%, outperforming existing methods and offering a scalable and practical solution for fingerprint-based indoor positioning systems.

    Internet of Things (IoT)-based Indoor localization is the most commonly used system to determine target locations indoors. It applies to various purposes, e.g., indoor navigation, asset tracking in warehouse management, and tracking people in hospitals. Distance-based techniques using the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI), e.g., Min-Max, are widely applied because they can be directly implemented without prerequisite work such as site surveys. However, a challenging indoor environment with high numbers of interiors and people can obstruct signal propagation. This obstruction can reduce the accuracy of translating RSSI to distance using the path loss model, which will degrade the localization accuracy. In this paper, we introduce two improved Min-Max (MM) algorithms, i.e., Three Layer Bounding Box Min-Max (TLB-MM) and Weighted Centroid TLB-MM (WC-TLB-MM), to alleviate the issue and achieve higher localization accuracy. The novelty of the proposed TLB-MM is incorporating RSSI error functions to generate three-layer bounding boxes: the inner, middle, and outer in the Min-Max algorithm. Meanwhile, WC-TLB-MM enhanced the TLB-MM algorithm by integrating the Weighted Centroid Localization Algorithm (WCLA) in the calculation process. We validate our proposal by conducting various experiments using Wi-Fi at 2.4 GHz deployed in a laboratory room of 10.17 m ×9.12 m. Experimental results demonstrate that TLB-MM improved the accuracy performance to 55.78% and 30.86%, while WC-TLB-MM gave 40.93% and 7.65% compared to Min-Max and WCLA, respectively. From these results, our proposed methods are proven simple yet applicable to RSSI-based indoor localization systems.
