Abstract
Disclosed is a method for increasing location estimation accuracy of a communication device, including identifying a set including at least one sample among a plurality of samples of a probability distribution for estimated locations of the communication device, and determining a location of the communication device among the at least one sample based on a reliability of each of the at least one sample, by determining the reliability of each of the at least one sample in the set, when a difference between a first location of the communication device which is estimated based on a first scheme and a second location of the communication device which is estimated based on a second scheme is greater than or equal to a preset threshold value, and determining a sample of which a reliability is greatest among the at least one sample as the location of the communication device.
