Radio Map Interpolation Using Graph Signal Processing
Alessandro E. C. Redondi · IEEE Communications Letters · 2017
Interpolating a radio map is a problem of great relevance in many scenarios such as network planning, network optimization, and localization. In this letter, such a problem is tackled by leveraging recent results from the emerging field of signal processing on graphs. A technique for interpolating graph structured data is adapted to the problem at hand by using different graph creation strategies, including ones that explicitly consider NLOS propagation conditions. Extensive experiments in a realistic large-scale urban scenario demonstrate that the proposed technique outperforms other traditional methods, such as IDW, RBF, and model-based interpolation.
