TIME-OF-FLIGHT LOCATION DETERMINATION WITH UNMANAGED WLAN

摘要

Systems and techniques for time-of-flight (ToF) location determination with unmanaged WLAN are described herein. Information for ToF measurements may be received. The ToF measurements may be performed with a plurality of WLAN access points (APs), including transmitting an initiator message from the SET (e.g., navigation device) to the plurality of WLAN APs. Results for the ToF measurements may be gathered. The gathered results may be communicated to a position calculator to calculate a position of the SET.

主权项

1. A SET for location determination in an unmanaged wireless local area network (WLAN), the SET comprising:
a receiver to receive information for time-of-flight (ToF) measurements, the ToF measurements including a fine-time-measurement of a radio signal between two positions; a processor to:
perform, using the information, the ToF measurements with a plurality of WLAN access points (APs) including transmitting an initiator message;gather results of the ToF measurements; andcommunicate the results to a position calculator.
