    Abstract: Correcting for antennae spatial distortions in Radio Frequency (RF) localization may be provided. A plurality of actual locations associated with a plurality of Access Point (APs) may be received. Then a plurality of signal strengths associated with the plurality of APs may be received. Based on the plurality of signal strengths, a model may be created that models a plurality of inference errors respectively corresponding to the plurality of APs between a plurality of inferred locations respectively corresponding to the plurality of APs and the plurality of actual locations. The model may then be used in determining a location of a device.

    Abstract: An access point includes first and second radios that operate in accordance with first and second wireless protocols, respectively. The access point performs a method including receiving a first protocol packet of the first wireless protocol and a second protocol packet of the second wireless protocol transmitted by a wireless device over a communication channel, and measuring a first received power of the first protocol packet and a second received power of the second protocol packet at the access point. The method further includes determining whether reception times of the first protocol packet and the second protocol packet are within a coherence time for the communication channel and, when the reception times are within the coherence time, combining the first received power and the second received power into a multiprotocol received power. The method also includes determining a location of the wireless device based on the multiprotocol received power.

    Abstract: Systems and methods provide for improving the accuracy of a location system. The location system can capture partial phase vector data from one or more access points (APs). The location system can capture associated data associated with the partial phase vector data across multiple dimensions, such as identity data of the APs and client devices generating the partial phase vector data and frequency band data, location data, a time and date, and other data associated with the partial phase vector data. The location system can determine correlation data across the multiple dimensions using the first partial phase vector data and the associated data. The location system can a cause of the partial phase vector data based on the correlation data. The location system can perform one or more remediation actions based on the cause of the partial phase vector data.

    Abstract: An enterprise system configures access point devices at an enterprise location to communicate with a location determination system. The location determination system receives wireless signal attributes of user computing devices broadcasting Wi-Fi signal data at the enterprise location from one or more access point devices. For a particular time window, the location determination system determines aggregated features of received wireless signal data across all access point devices, and classifies each of the user computing devices as moving or stationary by applying the wireless signal data to a model. For each of the user computing devices determined to be moving, the location determination system calculates a respective position of the user computing device based on the wireless signal data. For each of the user computing devices determined to be stationary, the location determination system does not calculate a respective position of the respective user computing device.

    Abstract: Object movement detection may be provided. Channel State Information (CSI) data may be obtained. The CSI data may be associated with a plurality of links between a plurality of Access Points (APs) that provide coverage to an area. Next, a plurality of features may be extracted from the CSI data. The plurality of features may then be converted to a plurality of scores. Then motion in sub-areas of the area may be classified based on a comparison of the plurality of scores to a threshold for the area. The threshold may be determined based upon data collected when no motion occurred in the area.
