The document discusses designing an indoor positioning system as an alternative to the existing costly and power-hungry StarGazer localization system. It surveys different wireless technologies like Wi-Fi, Zigbee, and ultrasonic options before proposing an RSSI-based triangulation solution using TI's low-power CC2431 SoC. Some implementation issues discussed include the non-linear relationship between RSSI and distance, needing additional algorithms and an RSSI map survey, and methods for orientation and multi-level positioning detection.
