Abstract

This work introduces FinGAN, a robust received signal strength (RSS) data generator designed to expand RSS fingerprint datasets. Compared to existing generative adversarial models that either rely on known reference positions (RPs) or depend on predefined priors, FinGAN learns the latent information between RPs and RSS values by maximizing the mutual information between the generated RSS data and the RPs, enabling an end-to-end RSS generation directly from RPs. This allows us to accurately generate RSS data for previously unmeasured RPs. Both quantitative and qualitative evaluations demonstrate that FinGAN produces synthetic RSS data closely aligned with real RSS sample collected from the on-site experiment, preserving localization performance comparable to that achieved with complete real-world datasets. To further validate its generalizability, FinGAN is also trained and evaluated on open-source datasets from three typical office environments,and the results demonstrate consistent performance across different scenarios.
