  • Publication number: 20170005909
    Abstract: Technology for a wireless underground communication system is disclosed. The wireless underground communication system can include a multi radio directional router (MRDR). The MRDR can include a dedicated in-by transceiver Wi-Fi node, and the dedicated in-by transceiver Wi-Fi node can be assigned a first unique IP address. The MRDR can include a dedicated out-by transceiver Wi-Fi node, and the dedicated out-by transceiver Wi-Fi node can be assigned a second unique IP address. The wireless underground communication system can include a routing module configured to route data between a plurality of MRDRs based on one or more of Optimized Link State Routing (OLSR) or Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), using the dedicated in-by transceiver Wi-Fi node and the dedicated out-by transceiver Wi-Fi node.

  • Publication number: 20170006424
    Abstract: Technology for a location tag transceiver configured to enable location information services is described. The location tag transceiver can receive a location information signal from a low energy fixed location beacon via a first radio access technology (RAT). The location information signal can include a media access control (MAC address) at a defined power level. The location tag transceiver can transmit, via a second RAT, the location information signal to a location server to enable the location server to: identify a fixed location perimeter of the low energy fixed location beacon based on a predetermined geographic location associated with the MAC address, and determine a location of the location tag transceiver within the fixed location perimeter based on the defined power level of the received location information signal.
