    Abstract: The present invention relates to SLAM (simultaneous localization and mapping) method and apparatus robust to a wireless environment change. A relative position of a moving node is estimated based on motion sensing of the moving node, the relative position of the moving node is corrected based on a comparison between a change pattern of at least one signal strength received over a plurality of time points and a signal strength distribution in a region in which the moving node is located, a route of the region is represented by using the relative position corrected as described above, and thereby, it is possible accurately estimate a position of the moving node and to create a map in which very accurate route information is recorded throughout the entire region at the same time, even if a wireless environment change such as signal interference between communication channels, expansion of an access point, and occurrence of a failure or an obstacle is made or a poor wireless environment such as lack of the number of access points occurs.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to wireless localization method and apparatus of high accuracy, and measures strength of at least one signal that is transmitted from at least one fixed node, estimates a relative position of a moving node, generates a change pattern of at least one signal strength according to relative changes in positions of the moving node over a plurality of time points from at least one signal strength and the relative position of the moving node, and estimates an absolute position of the moving node, based on a comparison between the change pattern of the at least one signal strength and a map of a distribution pattern shape of signal strength in a region where the moving node is located. Accordingly, it is possible to accurately estimate a position of a moving node using a radio signal which not only accurately estimates the position of the moving node even in a change of wireless environment but also has almost no change in signal strength over a wide region.
