    摘要: An apparatus and method to automatically determine the location of unknown media devices is disclosed. An example apparatus includes a media device detector to detect an unknown media device identified in monitoring data collected by an audience measurement device at a location determined to have an “on” status, a media transmission detector to detect a media transmission associated with a device address and an association storer to store an association of the device address, the unknown media device and the location. A probability determiner determines a probability that the unknown media device is located at the location.

    摘要: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed to identify devices. An example apparatus to identify devices comprises at least one memory; machine readable instructions; and processor circuitry to at least one of instantiate or execute the machine readable instructions to: determine if a device identification repository includes a first device identifier included in a query; infer first device information for the first device identifier based on a second device identifier and second device information included in the device identification repository; and transmit the first device information in response to the query.

    摘要: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to determine virtual WiFi data rate. An example disclosed herein includes a control frame receiver to capture control frames from a user device. The example disclosed herein further includes a bitrate calculator to calculate a bitrate for each control frame by dividing a bitmap of a control frame by an amount of time between the control frame and a previously captured control frame. The example disclosed herein further includes an interval timer to control a length of time that the control frames are captured before calculating the virtual bandwidth. The example disclosed herein further includes a virtual bandwidth calculator to calculate the virtual bandwidth after the length of time, the virtual bandwidth calculated by dividing an average bitrate from the control frames by the length of time.
