It is essential to enhance the speed and accuracy of the localization process to gain the robustness and instantaneous properties and to adapt from the practical environment of a confidence band. In this paper, we proposed a new received signal strength indicator-based method to construct a real-time confidence band, which was composed by multiple confidence region sets in a multivariate normal distribution, associated to a target’s trajectory for location-based services. Based on the concept of weighted positioning circular algorithm, we designed a new objective function to take into consideration the signal disruptions of the surrounding environments. The characteristics of the state of motion for the moving target were then inferred from the status of each confidence region. In order to speed up the localization process to obtain the real-time estimate of the confidence band via our objective function, we proposed in this paper a swarm intelligence-based localization optimization algorithm, which was modified from the standard framework of a novel swarm intelligence-based evolutionary algorithm.
