WiFi RSS and RTT Indoor Positioning with Graph Temporal Convolution Network.

Indoor positioning using commodity WiFi has gained significant attention; however, achieving sub-meter accuracy across diverse layouts remains challenging due to multipath fading and Non-Line-Of-Sight (NLOS) effects. In this work, we propose a hybrid Graph-Temporal Convolutional Network (GTCN) model that incorporates Access Point (AP) geometry through graph convolutions while capturing temporal signal dynamics via dilated temporal convolutional networks. The proposed model adaptively learns per-AP importance using a lightweight gating mechanism and jointly exploits WiFi Received Signal Strength (RSS) and Round-Trip Time (RTT) features for enhanced robustness. The model is evaluated across four experimental areas such as lecture theatre, office, corridor, and building floor covering areas from 15 m × 14.5 m to 92 m × 15 m. We further analyze the sensitivity of the model to AP density under both LOS and NLOS conditions, demonstrating that positioning accuracy systematically improves with denser AP deployment, especially in large-scale mixed environments. Despite its high accuracy, the proposed GTCN remains computationally lightweight, requiring fewer than 105 trainable parameters and only tens of MFLOPs per inference, enabling real-time operation on embedded and edge devices.
