摘要：
There exists a multitude of location-sensing systems utilizing wireless technology, though varying in cost, coverage and accuracy. In this paper we will introduce WLocator, a system that aims to strike a balance between these areas. WLocator will provide location information relative to symbolic, user-created "landmarks". These landmarks are easily created and maintained, thus reducing short and long term costs. Additionally, the unique matching algorithm invoked by WLocator attempts to offer a relatively high level of accuracy, given the low cost of implementing the system.
