  • Patent number: 9756460
    Abstract: An example of adaptive location perturbation can include selecting, by a processing resource of a mobile device executing instructions stored on a non-transitory medium, between a plurality of localization technologies to perturb a location measurement of the mobile device. The perturbed location measurement of the mobile device can be sent to a location-based service provider.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9733088
    Abstract: According to an example, a signal space based navigation apparatus may receive traces of wireless signal observations and corresponding pedestrian deadreckoning (PDR) traces between different ones of the wireless signal observations from a plurality of user devices. A plurality of wireless clusters may be generated based on the traces of wireless signal observations. A PDR displacement vector may be generated between two or more of the wireless clusters based on the two or more of the wireless clusters and a subset of the PDR traces corresponding to the two or more of the wireless clusters. A sensing map may be generated based on the plurality of wireless clusters and a plurality of PDR displacement vectors including the PDR displacement vector.

  • Patent number: 8965398
    Abstract: Examples disclosed herein relate to utilizing Bluetooth beacons for location determination of a mobile device. A Wi-Fi signal scan and a Bluetooth beacon scan are initiated at the mobile device. A location of the mobile device is determined based on at least on at least one Bluetooth beacon detectable by the mobile device, where the at least one Bluetooth beacon is transmitted from a first location, and where the first location is the location of the mobile device. A user of the mobile device is prompted for location information input, in response to determining that no Bluetooth beacons are detectable by the mobile device or when the at least one Bluetooth beacon detected is determined to be transmitted from a second location different from the location of the mobile device.
