dc.description.abstractIndoor localization has been active research in the past decade. The lack of a general model and the demand for high accuracy push the research forward. Some researchers have proposed unique variations and combinations to answer the challenges from the technologies to techniques. Some publications considered the low-cost equipment to the simple algorithm or model to the advanced, robust, and sophisticated system. Almost all of them use the two basics technique; range-based and range-free techniques. Each technique has advantages and disadvantages, including how the technique can efficiently handle the indoor multipath propagation effects. Most of the papers published are also considered the same room or single room indoor environment as the indoor localization system measurement campaign. This paper proposes a three-dimensional (3D) indoor localization for multi-story buildings using simple technology and technique and using only two beacons. We utilized the received signal strength indicator (RSSI) from ESP8266 based on the Wireless-Fidelity (Wi-Fi) standard as the localization parameter. We employ the range-based technique of min-max and least-square. We also compare both techniques to observe which one is suitable for the multi-story building implementation. We also emphasized the challenge of using only two beacons as our contribution. Our system performance results show that the mean error accuracy for min-max is 1.93m, while the least-square yields the mean error of 5.48m. The minimum error of min-max and least-square are 0.33m and 0.77m, respectively. The maximum error of least-square can reach more than 10m, while the min-max gives the maximum error of 4.38m. The results prove that RSSI-based min-max can be applied in a particular condition using only two beacons in the multi-story building.
