  • Publication number: 20240098456
    Abstract: Techniques for calculating a location of a position consumer device is disclosed. In one example, a network server may create a fingerprint map from reference data points. Each of the reference data points may include a recorded geo-location of a position source device and signal measurements taken at that recorded geo-location. By initially estimating an initial position of the position consumer device, the network server may apply one or more threshold values to filter reference data points—candidates for interpolation. The network server may then perform an interpolation on one or more pairs of reference data points to find a pair of reference data points that is collinear with the estimated position of the position consumer device. The location of the position consumer device may then be calculated based upon geo-locations of position source devices that are associated with collinear reference data points.

  • Patent number: 10582598
    Abstract: A system and method may include receiving, at a first node of a circuit electrically coupled to a light emitting diode, a pulsed electrical signal that includes signal current pulses. The system and method may also include enabling discharging of a capacitor electrically coupled to the first node at an enable time that is during a particular time period between two particular signal current pulses of the pulsed electrical signal.
