Abstract:
Systems and techniques relating to angle of arrival (AoA) reverse locationing include: transmitting, by a first wireless device to a second wireless device, one or more reverse tracking service discovery messages via a wireless communication link; receiving, at the first wireless device from the second wireless device, one or more response messages associated with the one or more reverse tracking service discovery messages, wherein the one or more response messages comprise (i) information indicating that the second wireless device is enabled for reverse tracking, and (ii) angle of arrival (AoA) information based on AoA calculations performed by the second wireless device; and determining, by the first wireless device, a location of the second wireless device based on the received AoA information.
