Abstract:
Systems and methods are introduced for indoor positioning and tracking of devices and objects using a multi-band wireless networking system. In an embodiment, multiple wireless networking devices are interconnected via a dedicated wireless backhaul to collectively form a single multi-band wireless network providing broad coverage to a client device. The multiple wireless networking devices of the system are coordinated via the dedicated backhaul, for example to manage time synchronization of signals received from the wireless networking devices that are indicative of a position of a client device or object. By coordinating the wireless networking devices via the dedicated backhaul and applying positioning processes to the received signals, a position of the client device or object is determined.
