摘要 |
The present invention provides a new and unique method and apparatus for providing an estimate of a mobile location of a wireless node, point or terminal in a wireless local area network (WLAN) or other suitable network, the estimate being based on a correlation of a radio frequency (RF) signal strength measurement and a grid point in a signal strength database or radio map. The signal strength database or radio map is built using a signal strength fingerprint algorithm. The signal strength fingerprint algorithm includes selecting and measuring a set of grid points in the wireless local area network (WLAN) or other suitable network.
