  • Detection of mobile device pairing patterns using transactional proximity
    Patent number: 11049139
    Abstract: At least one configured mobile device monitoring radius relative to respective purchase locations is established within a retail environment. Mobile device distances from purchase locations at times of purchases within the retail environment are monitored over time by a processor utilizing locationing technology. A repeating mobile device proximity pattern of at least two mobile device identifiers being located together and in proximity to the respective purchase locations at the times of the respective different purchases is detected across the several different purchases.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 2, 2018
    Date of Patent: June 29, 2021
    Assignee: International Business Machines Corporation
    Inventors: Dmitri S. Dodor, Jeffrey R. Pratt, Kyle D. Robeson

  • Detection of mobile device pairing patterns using transactional proximity
    Patent number: 10147118
    Abstract: Mobile device proximity to purchase locations at times of purchases within at least one retail environment is monitored over time by a processor utilizing locationing technology. Mobile device identifiers of mobile devices in proximity to the purchase locations within the at least one retail environment at the times of the purchases are captured. A repeating mobile device proximity pattern of at least two mobile device identifiers being repeatedly located together and in proximity to the respective purchase locations at the times of the respective purchases is detected across several different purchases. Mobile devices identified by the at least two mobile device identifiers detected within the repeating mobile device proximity pattern across the several different purchases are paired.
