  • Patent number: 11959994
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, an electronic apparatus includes a processor. The processor is configured to acquire position information indicating first and second installation positions of a plurality of pieces of equipment receive characteristic information of a first piece of equipment obtained from a first propagation characteristic and a second propagation characteristic, and characteristic information of a second piece of equipment obtained from a third propagation characteristic and a fourth propagation characteristic. The processor is configured to estimate a position where each of the first and second pieces of equipment is installed, based on the position information, and the characteristic information of the first and the second piece of equipment.

  • Publication number: 20210194423
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, an electronic apparatus includes a processor. The processor is configured to acquire n installation positions where first to n-th pieces of equipment are installed, receive a propagation characteristic related to the first to n-th pieces of equipment, and estimate, by an algorithm, a combination or the first to n-th pieces of equipment and each of the n installation positions based on a propagation characteristic related to the first to n-th pieces of equipment. An initial value of the algorithm is generated based on an arrangement of the n installation positions and an arrangement of the first to n-th pieces of equipment determined based on a propagation characteristic related to the first to n-th pieces of equipment.
