  • Patent number: 9386422
    Abstract: A non-transitory processor-readable medium storing code representing instructions to be executed by a processor includes code to cause the processor to receive from a wireless access point (WAP) device frequency-domain data associated with signals received at the WAP device from a wireless device during a time period. The code includes code to determine multiple frequency-domain magnitudes associated with the frequency-domain data for the time period to define a spectral magnitude signature associated with the frequency-domain data. Each frequency-domain magnitude from the multiple frequency-domain magnitudes is uniquely associated with a frequency bin from multiple mutually-exclusive frequency bins associated with the frequency domain data. The code also includes code to identify a spectral response deviation associated with the spectral magnitude signature and send a location identifier associated with a location of the wireless device based on the spectral response deviation.

  • Patent number: 8594606
    Abstract: A technique for determining a received signal strength from multiple messages filters noise from the received signal to provide an accurate signal strength value. Advantageously, the more accurate output signal strength value can be used to identify movement of a station as well as estimate locations and direction of movement.

  • Patent number: 8446890
    Abstract: A technique for associating clients with APs in an advantageous manner may involve local balancing of clients across APs. This may involve providing instructions to APs to disable client association. Alternatively, this technique may involve load balancing across controllers.

  • Patent number: 5276741
    Abstract: An apparatus and method useful in correcting character strings misread by a character recognition engine. The misread string is compared to character strings contained in a lexicon of valid character strings and the similarity between the strings measured. The valid strings can be ranked by degree of similarity should further selection be required to determine the appropriate value of the misread character string.

  • Patent number: 5193121
    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for processing the predetermined number fields containing the handwritten numeric entries. The numeric entries are subjected to character recognition analysis, and a confidence level is associated with each such numeric field reflecting the degree of confidence with which the apparatus has recognized the numeric dollar amounts. The transaction is automatically balanced from the data in the system by computing a combined value of the recognized dollar amounts making up a transaction and comparing the combined value with the transaction total. This computation and comparison is performed automatically, without the prior intervention or assistance of a human operator to review, verify, correct or otherwise modify the dollar amounts recognized by the system.
