SITE LOCATION DETERMINATION USING CROWD SOURCED PROPAGATION DELAY AND LOCATION DATA

摘要

Site location determination using crowd sourced propagation delay and location data is provided. A propagation delay component receives a set of propagation delay measurements for communications between a mobile device and an access point. A user equipment location component receives a location of the mobile device, and a combination component combines the set of propagation delay measurements and the location into a set of location data. An access point location component determines a set of intersecting locations between the set of location data and additional sets of location data, and determines a location of the access point based on the set of intersecting locations.

1. A system, comprising:
a processor; and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
receiving, from a network device of a wireless network, propagation delay measurements based on signals exchanged by a mobile device and an access point device;receiving, from the network device, first location data related to a first location of the mobile device;generating second location data based on the propagation delay measurements and the first location data;in response to the generating the second location data, determining an estimated location of the access point device resulting in third location data related to the estimated location;comparing the third location data to geographical data related to a topology of the estimated location; andin response to the comparing, determining that the estimated location of the access point device is an improbable location of the access point device according to an improbability criterion.
