4. LAWS/Sri Naga Jahnavi Yeddanapudy
Background
GPS information – Latitude , Longitude
Wi-Fi derived location information
Utilize the GPS locations of Wireless access points (AP)
BSSID can be used to identify uniquely the signal of an AP.
By correlating the strength of three AP signals we can estimate the location of a Wi-Fi receiver.
Make sure you understand GPS signal and what it provides.
There are other timing information besides Long/Lat.
r example, the GPS signal in space will provide a "worst case" pseudorange accuracy of 7.8 meters at a 95% confidence level.

Related Work
Improve GPS Positioning Accuracy with Context Awareness [Huang,2008]
Our work used only latitude and longitude values not the behavior of the context.
Task remainder based on location [Lin and Hung, 2014]
Utilized the GPS and Wi-Fi information like the mac address added to the database but not the distances.
Validating crowd sensed data using image processing [Talasila, 2013]
Our work differs by using GPS and Wi-Fi information.
The defense should focus on your work not others. Related work is necessary but try to focus on three key ones. In each paper, you should add a sub-bullet item discuss how your research differs from theirs or how you utilize the research.

7. Location Accuracy Based on Wireless Signals
Assumptions
End user must have Android Studio installed to deploy the application.
We assume that there are no hackers trying to change or spoof the GPS and Wi-Fi location information.
The Android applications that are developed serve the Android smart phones or tablets which have Minimum SDK API 15 : Android (Ice cream Sandwich)
LAWS System is provided to
Smart phone GPS application for determining the user location.
Wi-Fi application for providing the user location based on Wi-Fi and geolocation information.
What is” have minimum API 15” ?

9. Evaluate Accuracy of Geolocations Computed by LAWS Software
Nine points in UCCS Alpine Soccer Field are chosen
May want to mention how these points and location are chosen.
1. GPS signal works only on outdoor.
2. Soccer field easy to locate landmarks and painted patterns.
3. There are Wi-Fi base station close by (perhap identify them in this map too)
