An example embodiment includes energizing, by an RFID reader having an RFID antenna, an RFID tag corresponding to an item positioned within a defined space. Each of a first signal strength and a second signal strength of the RFID tag is detected, respectively, by a first RFID receiver node of a first node channel and a second RFID receiver node of a second node channel. A controller alternates a multiplexor to receive at the multiplexor each of first signal strength data from the first RFID receiver node and second signal strength data from the second RFID receiver node. The first signal strength data and the second signal strength data is provided to the RFID reader and combined to determine a location of the item positioned within the defined space. | 2021-12-16 |
20210392609 | SRS Switching for UL Positioning Signal Transmission - A method performed by a User Equipment (UE) for transmitting Uplink (UL) signals for positioning purpose in a wireless communications network is provided. The UE receives ( | 2021-12-16 |
20210392610 | ACCESS POINT BASED LOCATION SYSTEM FOR HIGH DENSITY WIFI DEPLOYMENTS - Techniques for access point (AP) based location computation are disclosed. A target wireless AP, communicatively coupled to a wireless station (STA), is identified. One or more location buddy APs, relating to the target AP, are identified based on the physical locations of the location buddy APs and the target AP. It is determined that a first location buddy AP, of the one or more location buddy APs, is communicatively coupled to the STA, and in response a location of the STA is determined using the target AP. | 2021-12-16 |
20210392611 | TRIPWIRE-BASED GEOLOCATION SYSTEM - Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a non-transitory computer storage medium, for receiving user-defined routes, each user-defined route including a tripwire of multiple tripwires and a direction, where each user-defined route includes an action of multiple actions executed by a sub-system of a home monitoring system, detecting a first signal at a first tripwire including a first direction, determining a set of user-defined routes including the first tripwire and the first direction, detecting a second signal at a second tripwire including a second direction, determining a particular user-defined route of the set of user-defined routes including the first tripwire and the first direction and the second tripwire and the second direction, determining an action executed by a sub-system of the home monitoring system for the particular user-defined route traversed by a user, and triggering execution of the action based on the second signal at the second tripwire. | 2021-12-16 |
20210392612 | METHOD, DEVICE AND TERMINAL FOR LOCATION MESSAGE TRANSMISSION PROCESSING - The present disclosure provides a method, a device and a terminal for location message transmission processing. The method for location message transmission processing is applied to an access network equipment and includes: performing LTE Positioning Protocol (LPP) message interaction with a terminal through a local location management function. | 2021-12-16 |
