Abstract:
Apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed for determining dynamic positioning of mobile cells. Dynamic positioning provides for navigating a mobile cell, such as an unmanned aerial vehicle or the like, to a location suitable for offloading current network traffic, such that the suitable location maximizes offloading capabilities. The methodology describes takes into account both the current traffic load on the network and the location of the highest system capacity-intensive mobile terminals in determining an initial position for deploying the mobile cell. Additionally, the location of the deployed mobile cell is optimized, over time, based on tracking the direction of movement of the highest capacity-intensive mobile terminals, and, in some embodiments, service quality indicators provided by the mobile terminals and/or contextual information captured by the mobile cell apparatus.

Abstract:
Methods and devices for determining a relative position between a first device and a second device are described. Measurement signals are transmitted from the first device to the second device. Each measurement signal is associated with a corresponding radio frequency spectrum in which the measurement signal is transmitted. A first radio frequency spectrum associated with a first measurement signal has a different frequency range than a second radio frequency spectrum associated with a second measurement signal of the plurality of measurement signals. At the second device the relative position based on at least the first and second measurement signals is determined.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for determining a relative position between a first device and a second device. A plurality of measurement signals is transmitted from the first device to the second device. Each measurement signal of the plurality of measurement signals is associated with a corresponding radio frequency spectrum in which the measurement signal is transmitted. A first radio frequency spectrum associated with a first measurement signal has a different frequency range than a second radio frequency spectrum associated with a second measurement signal of the plurality of measurement signals. At the second device the relative position based on at least the first and second measurement signals is determined.
Abstract:
A mobile terminal is operated by receiving a first signal and a second signal, determining a signal strength of the first signal, and determining an indoor location of the mobile terminal based on the signal strength of the first signal and the second signal. The first signal is a radio frequency signal and the second signal is an audio frequency signal.
