Abstract
In this paper, we propose a radio environment map (REM) update methodology based on clustering and machine learning for indoor coverage. We use real measurements collected by the TurtleBot3 mobile robot using the received signal strength indicator (RSSI) as a measure of link quality between transmitter and receiver. We propose a practical framework for timely updates to the REM for dynamic wireless communication environments where we need to deal with variations in physical element distributions, environmental factors, movements of people and devices, and so on. In the proposed approach, we first rely on a historical dataset from the area of interest, which is used to determine the number of clusters via the K-means algorithm. Next, we divide the samples from the historical dataset into clusters, and we train one random forest (RF) model with the corresponding historical data from each cluster. Then, when new data measurements are collected, these new samples are assigned to one cluster for a timely update of the RF model. Simulation results validate the superior performance of the proposed scheme, compared with several well-known ML algorithms and a baseline scheme without clustering.
