Abstract
A position detection system is provided in which it is possible to inhibit deterioration in accuracy of detecting a position of a terminal after communication environment is changed even in a case where the communication environment is changed in the position detection system. In the position detection system, a first terminal measures radio wave intensity of radio waves from a plurality of wireless connection devices in the first terminal, and transmits a measurement result to a position detection server through each of the wireless connection devices. A second terminal is disposed in a prescribed position, measures the radio wave intensity of the radio waves from the plurality of wireless connection devices in the prescribed position, generates first reference data including information of the measured radio wave intensity, and transmits the first reference data to the position detection server through the wireless connection devices. The position detection server receives the measurement result and the first reference data, updates the first reference data, which is maintained in a memory in advance, with the received first reference data, and estimates a position of the first terminal based on the measurement result, the updated first reference data, and positional information of the second terminal.
