Abstract: Methods and systems for tracking asset locations within a facility are disclosed. In one embodiment, a system is provided that includes nodes and a gateway. The nodes may receive beacon transmissions containing beacon identifiers from beacons associated with assets. The nodes may transmit a node transmission including a beacon identifier, a node identifier of the node, and a signal strength of received beacon transmissions. The gateway may receive node transmissions and identify node transmissions that share a common beacon identifier. The gateway may then determine a location of the beacon associated with the common beacon identifier by identifying floors associated with nodes that received a beacon transmission from the beacon. The gateway may also select a beacon floor with the most nodes that received a beacon transmission from the beacon and may select a closest node from among the nodes on the beacon floor with the highest signal strength.
