Thus, a KNN-based two-step FCM weighted （KTFW） algorithm for indoor positioning in wireless local area networks （WLAN） is presented in this paper. In KTFW algorithm, k reference points （RPs） chosen by KNN are clustered through FCM based on received signal strength （RSS） and location coordinates. The right clusters are chosen according to rules, so three sets of RPs are formed including the set of k RPs chosen by KNN and are given different weights. RPs supposed to have better contribution to positioning accuracy are given larger weights to improve the positioning accuracy.
