DEVICE-LOCATION ESTIMATION BASED ON RSSI MEASUREMENTS OVER WIFI AND BLUETOOTH

摘要

Examples of systems and methods for estimating a device location are disclosed. In one example, a device locating system includes three or more sensor devices, a processor, and a storage device storing instructions executable to determine an estimated location of a scanned device based on a received signal strength indication (RSSI) value for the scanned device measured by at least three of the three or more sensor devices and processed in view of previously-recorded RSSI values for the scanned device. The instructions are further executable to output the estimated location of the scanned device to a computing device for controlling operation of the computing device.

1. A device locating system comprising:
three or more sensor devices; a processor; and a storage device storing instructions executable to:
determine an estimated location of a scanned device based on a received signal strength indication (RSSI) value for the scanned device measured by at least three of the three or more sensor devices and processed in view of previously-recorded RSSI values for the scanned device and/or instantaneous RSSI values of the scanned device; andoutput the estimated location of the scanned device to a computing device for controlling operation of the computing device.
