This article brings a comprehensive tutorial on radio-frequency (RF) positioning in Bluetooth and Ultra-Wideband (UWB) Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPANs), carrying out an extensive literature review, providing the reader an overview of Bluetooth and UWB RF positioning state-of-the-art. It also delves into some key issues, such as multilateration (MLAT) based solutions using received signal strength and time-of-arrival, multi-slope linear regression, RF fingerprinting and the use of clustering techniques to improve its localization accuracy, the interrelation between Bluetooth versions improvements and new positioning capabilities, as well as localization prospects in future UWB networks. 1. Introduction Bluetooth has been around for more than 20 years now (Stallings, 2005). Initially devised to replace with wireless links the serial cables connecting peripherals to computers or mobile phones, Bluetooth has evolved to support low-power short-range communications between a variety of mobile devices, from laptops and smartphones to earphones and body sensors. Its latest version(Bluetooth 4.0), with its focus on very low power consumption(thereby greatly improving battery lifetime) and reduced connection delay, made Bluetooth technology particularly well suited for indoor positioning in WPANs. UWB is an emerging technology
