Abstract: An apparatus obtains a set of radio data comprising signal strength related values for radio signals transmitted by a transmitter with an association of each signal strength related value with a representation of a geographical location. The apparatus applies a frequency transform to the obtained set of radio data to obtain transform coefficients, each transform coefficient comprising a transform index and an associated transform value. The apparatus selects a subset of transform indices having more significant transform values than the remaining transform indices and compresses the transform indices by encoding each transform index exploiting a probability of occurrence of an index value of a respective transform index. The same or another apparatus decodes the compressed transform indices again for use in position operations.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided to improve the positioning performance of a positioning application. The method receives particular radio signal propagation information regarding received radio signal propagation parameter of a respective signal collected by a mobile device following transmission by a beacon on a sub-channel. The method also receives past radio signal propagation information regarding the received radio signal propagation parameter of signals previously transmitted by the beacon and collected by the mobile device on one or more sub-channels. Based on the particular radio signal propagation information and the past radio signal propagation information, the method determines a value for representing the respective signal that is different from the received radio signal propagation parameter of the respective signal.
