- 20. Location Tracking Approaches • Real-time location tracking and positioning systems can be classified by the measurement techniques they employ to determine mobile device location • Approaches differ in terms of the specific technique used to sense and measure the position of the mobile device in the target environment • Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS) can be grouped into four basic categories of systems that determine position on the basis of the following: 20 Cell of origin (nearest cell) Distance based (lateration) Angle based (Angulation) Location patterning BRKEWN-2650
- 21. Cell of Origin • One of the simplest mechanisms of estimating approximate location in any system based on RF cells is the concept of ‘cell of origin’ (or ‘associated access point’ in Wi-Fi 802.11 systems) • When receiving cells, provide received signal strength indication (RSSI) for mobile devices; the use of the highest signal strength technique can improve location granularity over the cell of origin. 21BRKEWN-2650
- 22. Distance-Based (Trilateration) Techniques • Trilateration can be performed by using received signal strength (RSS) • Measured by either the mobile device or the receiving sensor 22 10dB The closer the distance the greater the rate of change in RSS in relationship to distance The change in RSS in relationship to distance flattens out at greater distances BRKEWN-2650
- 23. Angle-Based (Angulation) Techniques • The AoA locates the mobile station by determining the angle of incidence at which signals arrive at the receiving sensor • Requires two receiving sensors for location estimation, with improved accuracy coming from at least three or more receiving sensors (triangulation) 23BRKEWN-2650
- 24. Location Patterning (Fingerprinting) • Location patterning is based on the sampling and recording of radio signal behaviour patterns in specific environments • Each potential device location ideally possesses a distinctly unique RF "signature” 24 Because of fading and other phenomena, the observed signal strength of a mobile device at a particular location is not static but is seen to vary over time. As a result, calibration phase software typically records many samples of signal strength for a mobile device during the actual sampling process. BRKEWN-2650
