  • Publication number: 20230061468
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods of generating a visual representation of a wireless service conditions in a three-dimensional display comprising: capturing, from a wireless device, a collection of data comprising wireless service conditions; determining from the data, a latitude and longitude and determining a reference altitude based on said latitude and longitude; determining from the data, a reported altitude in a coordinate system of choice; subtracting the reference altitude from the reported altitude in the coordinate system of choice; determining an estimated above-ground elevation of the data; and displaying in a visual representation the wireless service condition within a three-dimensional graphical image.

  • Patent number: 11388551
    Abstract: Methods of creating an indoor confidence level comprising: receiving a location and location accuracy value from or for a device, wherein the location accuracy value is equated to a location accuracy circle; comparing the location and location accuracy circle to a map of known buildings and outdoor locations; and defining an indoor confidence level based upon the percent of overlap of the accuracy radius to a building on said map; and methods of defining an optimization priority among a set of collected data points for network connectivity.

  • Publication number: 20210302530
    Abstract: A method of estimating the position of a wireless transmitter comprising: collecting a plurality of wireless measurements between a transmitter and a receiver; drawing a buffer circle around each measurement, having a radius defined by the timing advance delay measurements; plotting a plurality of buffer circles and identifying intersection points for adjacent measurements only; estimating the position based on the intersection of delay measurements from said plurality of wireless measurements.
