| 摘要 |
This disclosure is directed to devices and methods for providing a location aware wireless network including at least one network node that is configured to calculate a position estimate on the basis of signals received from other network nodes and to transmit location information based on the position estimate to other nodes on the network. Preferably, the network node is configured to autonomously determine a signal-derived position estimate, including those based on location information from other network nodes, signal strength or the timing of signals. Other network nodes can feature GPS receivers, which can optionally be configured to perform signal-derived estimates as well.
