Abstract: Systems and techniques for time-of-flight (ToF) location determination with unmanaged WLAN are described herein. Information for ToF measurements may be received. The ToF measurements may be performed with a plurality of WLAN access points (APs), including transmitting an initiator message from the SET (e.g., navigation device) to the plurality of WLAN APs. Results for the ToF measurements may be gathered. The gathered results may be communicated to a position calculator to calculate a position of the SET.

In one embodiment, a method can include storing, by a wireless communication device, credentials of one or more trusted network entities in the wireless network, receiving, by the wireless communication device, a request for location information from one or more access points, and transmitting, by the wireless communication device, location information to the one or more access points. The request may include location configuration information request, time of flight request or a fine timing measurement request. The method may also include storing one or more aging parameters for one or more trusted network entities. The credentials include basic service set identification or service set identification. Certain methods, apparatus, and systems described herein can be applied to 802.11ax or any other wireless standard.

Abstract: Indoor positioning networks are faced with several challenges. The methods employed by many indoor positioning systems require highly accurate time synchronization. Where many responders must be synchronized together, the accuracy of the time-synchronization can be improved via a synchronization tree that identifies preferable paths to synchronize responders and eliminates ambiguity. Moreover, where absolute location information is available for less than all of the responders, accurate round trip time measurement can be used to obtain the relative locations of the responders to each other. Where the relative locations are known, any absolute location of a responder can be extrapolated to the remaining responders. Finally, with the use of appropriate algorithms, these round trip time measurements can be collected in reference to a device that is stationary or moving.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses are directed to a wireless device having location servicing capabilities. A first location processing entity manages one or more first client applications and one or more first location providers associated with the first location processing entity and a second location processing entity manages one or more second client applications and one or more second location providers associated with the second location processing entity. A communications facility accommodates communications between the first location processing entity and second location processing entity. The second location processing entity reports the capabilities of the second location providers to the first location processing entity via the communications facility, and, in response to receiving a location service request, the first location processing entity evaluates capabilities of the first location providers and second location providers to select one of the first or second location providers that optimize location service performance.
