AbstractThis thesis presents an approach of integrating single board computers as an access point and as a short-range object localization system. This is achieved by using open hardware and implementing IEEE 802.11 a/g/p based transceiving on low-cost Adlam Pluto Software Defined Radio (SDR), which operates in the S-band frequency range with Frame Error Rate (FER) controlled calibration. Experiments are conducted to investigate the effect of FER on the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) of IEEE 802.11 a/g/p transceiving, there by drawing the connection between the RSSI and the FER. Object localization is done based on the referenced RSSI and the real-time RSSI with FER based controlled calibration of RSSI. About 80% of accuracy can be expected from the implemented object localization system.
