This paper discusses an innovative approach for indoor location estimation utilizing a mobile device in WiFi-covered environments. The challenge arises from similar signals not necessarily indicating proximity to the same locations. The proposed method maximizes the correlation between signal characteristics and actual locations through Kernel Canonical Correlation Analysis (KCCA). Experimental results showcase that the LE-KCCA approach significantly reduces calibration efforts, achieving an impressive accuracy with minimal samples compared to traditional methods, outperforming alternatives like SVM and MLE.
