Location estimation technology under the wireless environment has become a vital technology in the field of mobile edge computing. Especially, under the mobile edge of entire networks environment, indoor location estimation is gradually getting the interest research and application topic, due to technical constraints of global positioning system technology for indoor environment and the popularity of the mobile edge computing servers. In this paper, the widely used single-model framework for indoor localization is presented as an introduction, which consists of three stages: 1) sample data collection; 2) model building; and 3) localization estimation. And then, through analyzing of the actual scene of indoor localization, a new framework for indoor localization under mobile edge computing environment, named Multimodel, is proposed from the theoretical perspective. It is mainly based on the observation that the environment of the sample data collection and that of localization data collection may change seriously. In order to make up for the shortcomings of this framework, two combinatorial optimization problems are proposed. Later, we discuss the NP-hardness of them in several different cases. In addition, two heuristic algorithms are given, and the performance of which are illustrated by the corresponding experimental results.
