Abstract

A method and a device for zone-based localization of mobile devices are described. In an example, a zone from amongst a plurality of zones of an indoor space in which a mobile device is present is identified. The identification of the can be based on instantaneous localization information obtained from the mobile device. Further, a localization criterion to be employed for localizing the mobile device is determined based on the identified zone. The localization criterion may be indicative of a selectivity in use of sensor data for localizing the mobile device. Subsequently, the mobile device is localized in the indoor space, based on the localization criterion.
