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: Examples are disclosed for a mobile device to determine its location by trilateration with docked mobile devices and, optionally, wireless access points. Locations are determined to within an accuracy of within three feet. The docked mobile devices are at fixed locations such as docked to a docking station. In some examples, a mobile device may perform ranging to the docked mobile devices and fixed wireless stations. Ranging may use a time-of-flight (ToF) process, and may compensate for multipath interference. Trilateration may consider relative accuracies of ranging components. Other examples are described and claimed.

Abstract: Embodiments of a system and method for establishing a physical location of a device are generally described herein. In some embodiments a device may include a wireless device configured to communicate with an access point through the use of a wireless protocol, and to receive timing information from the access point. In some embodiments a device may receive unsolicited timing information from one or more network devices that intercept communications between the device and the access point. In some embodiments a module in a device may determine a range between the device and the access point or the one or more network devices. In some embodiments a plurality of access points may monitor a communication protocol and provide unsolicited timing information in response to communications between a device and an access point without establishing a connection with the device.

Abstract: Embodiments of a system and method for establishing a physical location of a device are generally described herein. In some embodiments a device may include a wireless device configured to communicate with an access point through the use of a wireless protocol, and to perform a method for time-of-flight (ToF) positioning that includes a three-stage fine-timing measurement (FTM) procedure that includes: a first stage for negotiating comeback timing for a next FTM exchange, a second stage that includes performing a fine timing measurement exchange and optionally negotiating the comeback timing for the next fine timing measurement exchange, and a third stage that includes reporting and polling the timestamp of the previous fine timing measurement exchange and optionally performing an additional fine timing measurement stage. In some embodiments a module in a device may determine a range between the device and the access point or the one or more network devices.
