The method includes allocating, by a communication management device, a plurality of RA sub-bands within the RA band to a plurality of WAICS transmitters, wherein each of the plurality of WAICS transmitters is allocated at least one of the plurality of RA sub-bands; detecting, by the communication management device, overlap of an RA signal with at least one RA sub-band from the plurality of RA sub-bands; and switching off, iteratively by the communication management device, at least one of the plurality of WAICS transmitters whose allocated RA-sub-band overlaps with at least a part of the RA signal.

Abstract: System and method for generating a dynamic route map for a person trapped in an enclosed space and for enabling quick evacuation of the person is disclosed. When a request for evacuation is made by the person, the evacuation system locates the person based on the RFID person identifier tag and localizes the location of the person with respect to plurality of RFID floor tags and plurality of self-identifying RFID reader antenna tags. Further, condition of the floor is assessed by comparing the RSSI readings of the plurality of RFID floor tags and the RSSI readings of the plurality of self-identifying RFID reader antenna tags and the environmental information with pre-defined baseline RSSI readings of the plurality of RFID floor tags, RSSI readings of the plurality of self-identifying RFID reader antenna tags and an environmental threshold. A dynamic floor map is generated by collecting the RSSI readings from the plurality of RFID floor tags, self-identifying RFID reader antenna tags.

Abstract: A technique is provided for controlling a transmit range of a wireless transmitter. The technique includes retrieving Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) values measured by one or more sensors, corresponding to the plurality of wireless transmitters distributed in a region in which the sensors are located. A plurality of parameters associated with the wireless transmitter to be placed within the region are received. The plurality of parameters includes a minimum range of transmission of the wireless transmitter and a preferred position in the region. A plurality of clusters are generated based on the retrieved RSSI values and the minimum range. Further, one or more positions for placing the wireless transmitter within a cluster from the plurality of clusters, and a maximum range of transmission at each of the one or more positions, are determined. The maximum range is determined by controlling a range of transmission of the wireless transmitter.
