A wireless positioning system for detecting a positioning coordinate of a person comprises a wireless positioning device for sending a wireless broadcast signal comprising a device identity code and a motion vector; a plurality of wireless base stations for receiving the wireless broadcast signal and sending a positioning signal comprising a wireless broadcast signal and an RSSI; and a positioning server for receiving the positioning signal and calculating the positioning coordinates of the wireless positioning device according to the positioning signal. Wherein, when the received positioning signal is insufficient to calculate the positioning coordinates, the positioning coordinates are calculated based on the last positioning coordinate plus the motion vector. Compared with the prior art, the wireless positioning system of the present invention uses the RSSI to cooperate with the motion vector. The wireless positioning range is expanded with more accuracy.
