Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems are described for determining whether a mobile device is in a stopped state based at least in part on round trip time (RTT) measurements between the device and at least one access point. The stopped state determination may be based on RTT measurements alone, or on RTT measurements in combination with other positioning and movement measurements. Further, filtering such as particle and Kalman filtering may be used to improve determination of whether the device is in a stopped state.

Abstract: Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for determining a location for a wireless communication device using an integrated WiFi sniffer and measurement engine are presented. The method includes utilizing a first WiFi transceiver and a second WiFi transceiver. Data communications or positioning communications can be transmitted and received on either of the first and the second WiFi transceivers, or both.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses of providing positioning assistance data are disclosed. According to aspects of the present disclosure, a venue is partitioned into a plurality of tiles, with each tile represents an area of the venue. Measurements from each tile with respect to one or more access points in the venue may be represented as one or more images. The one or more images are then processed to generate a compressed positioning assistance data of the venue. The compressed positioning assistance data may then be provided to a mobile device. Position of a mobile device may be determined using the compressed positioning assistance data of the venue.

Abstract: Systems and methods of providing fine-time assistance (FTA) for a mobile device are described herein. A GNSS time is received from a GNSS satellite at a GNSS receiver. The GNSS time is then transferred to an access point (AP) over a wired network. The AP is coupled to the mobile device over a wireless local area network (WLAN). A round trip time (RTT) between the AP and the mobile device over the WLAN is determined, for example by exchanging one or more communications between the mobile device and the AP over the wireless local area network (WLAN). The GNSS time is then transferred from the AP to the mobile device over the WLAN. A FTA based GNSS time is calculated at the mobile device based on the GNSS time received from the AP and the RTT.

Abstract: Systems and methods for two-dimensional (2D) velocity estimation of an object in an area of interest are disclosed. The area of interest can correspond to an indoor or an outdoor environment. Round trip times (RTTs) of signals from two or more signal sources to the object are determined. The object is relocated and delta RTT values of the signals subsequent to relocation of the object within the area of interest are determined. Angles of arrival (AOAs) of the signals at the object also determined. The 2D velocity of the object is estimated by on solving a system of non-linear equations based on the delta RTT values and the AOAs.
