  • METHOD AND A SYSTEM FOR THE LOCALISATION OF A COMMUNICATION DEVICE
    Publication number: 20140194143
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for localising a communication device (1), wherein by measuring field strengths of a radio network (2) at known locations, an assignment is made of the field strength measured at the communication device (1) to the known locations, wherein the method comprises a calibration phase, a measuring phase, a post-processing phase, as well as a localisation phase; and an apparatus adapted to carry out the method for localising a communication device.
