摘要： Embodiments herein relate to determining the location of a device using hybrid localization techniques. For example, a first technique such as trilateration may be used to determine an approximate location of the device. An error associated with the approximate location may also be implemented to increase the likelihood of locating the device upon applying a second localization technique, such as fingerprinting. Fingerprinting, when applied to the approximate location determined from trilateration, may determine the location of the device, or a more precise location than that determined from trilateration, such that reduced power consumption by the device may be achieved without sacrificing location accuracy.

摘要： Certain embodiments herein are directed to reducing variations in received signal strength indicator (RSSI) measurements that may be received by a wireless device over a network, such as a WiFi network including one or more access points. A signal sent from an access point may be received by a user device, where channel estimation results associated with the received signal may be analyzed to determine a more accurate location of the user device. The received signal may be converted to at least one of the time domain and the frequency domain, in which signal components associated with the received signal may be identified based on a determination that the signal components may be associated with multipath fading or other types of interference. Such identified signal components, whether in the frequency domain or the time domain) may be excluded from a determination of a signal strength measurement that may in turn be used to identify the location of the user device.

摘要： A device, system, and method are presented for detecting motion. The system may include the device and a first transmitter and a second transmitter configured to transmit a first set of wireless signals and a second set of wireless signals, respectively. The device may have a receiver configured to receive the first and second set of wireless signals, and may further include a processing unit that determines a first value and a second value indicative of fading attenuations experienced by the first set of wireless signals and the second set of wireless signals, respectively. The processing unit may further determine whether the first and second values are each consistent with motion of an object in proximity to the device. The processing unit may cause the device to output an indication of presence of the object if both values are consistent with motion of the object in proximity to the device.
