  • 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.
