Wireless communications is a multibillion dollar international business and there are now a number of matureand emerging radio standards with readily available chipsets on the market such as WiFi, Ultra-Wide Band(UWB) and RFID. With these technologies new applications are starting to emerge. It is now possible to makeuse of wireless transceivers for localization and high precision position finding of objects in indoorenvironments. Intense research is beginning to make mapping of rooms with high precision using only a coupleof very low cost transceivers a reality. This could have many potential applications, including assisted livingfor people with vision impairments or elderly persons. It could also be used in warehouses to remotelydetermine the location of inventory in real time.

无线通信是一项价值数十亿美元的国际业务，现在有许多成熟的和新兴的无线电标准，市场上有现成的芯片组，如WiFi、超宽带(UWB)和RFID。随着这些技术的出现，新的应用程序开始出现。现在可以利用无线收发信机对室内环境中的物体进行定位和高精度定位。密集的研究开始使仅使用几个非常低成本的收发机就能实现高精度的房间测绘成为现实。这可能有许多潜在的应用，包括为视力障碍者或老年人提供辅助生活。它还可以在仓库中使用，以远程实时确定库存位置。
