Abstract
The advent of new wireless technologies in recent years has created a tremendous increase in the demand for wireless connectivity. The estimated number of mobile device connections exceeds eight billion globally, more than the population of the world, and the growth trend is rapidly increasing as the developing world penetration rate is still in its infancy. With the Internet-of-Things (IoT), it is expected that the total number of connections will reach over fifty billion in the next few years. In conjunction with wireless connectivity technology, the need for location awareness is paramount.
