Abstract: A magnetic resonance technology is used to implement front and back proximity sensing capability for wireless devices such as a laptap device. For example, a high quality (Q) factor coil antenna may be embedded in a display, such as a liquid crystal display, of a first laptap device to detect other wireless devices (e.g., a second laptap) that are within coupling distance of the first laptap device. In this example, the second laptap device induces a sine wave signal to the first laptap device if the second laptap device is physically located at backside of the first laptap device. Otherwise, the second laptap device may induce a cosine wave signal to the first laptap device if the second laptap device is physically located at the front side of the first laptap device.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for providing precise location sensing for wireless devices in an indoor environment using channel fading fingerprinting. An indoor environment within which wireless devices are used is surveyed to develop a channel fading database for the indoor environment. The surveying of the indoor environment determines a specific channel fading profile according to 30 subcarrier frequencies in a wireless signal for numerous locations within the indoor environment. A wireless device scans for available wireless access points and extracts a channel fading profile for a current location of the wireless device. The extracted channel fading profile for the current location of the wireless device is compared with the channel fading database. A best match comparison between the extracted channel fading profile and the channel fading database is used to determine an actual physical location of the wireless device in the indoor environment.

Abstract: This disclosure is directed to positioning and mapping based on virtual landmarks. A space may include a plurality of signal sources (e.g., wireless access points (APs), cellular base stations, etc.). The space may be virtually divided into a plurality of regions, wherein each region in the space may be associated with a virtual landmark. Virtual landmarks may be identified by a signature comprised of measurements of wireless signals received from the plurality of access points when at the associated region. A device position may be approximated based on signal power magnitude and variance measurements for wireless signals received at the virtual landmark. Devices may employ an algorithm such as, for example, Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) for positioning and map creation in the space without the need for GPS signals, specialized signaling equipment, pre-navigation device training, etc. Navigation/mapping may also account for space changes, signal source position changes, etc.

Abstract: A location of a wireless device relative to a vehicle is determined using received data. Data may be received from the vehicle sensors. Data may also be received from the wireless device sensors of a wireless device. The presence of one or more persons may be determined using received data.

Abstract: Certain embodiments herein are directed to reducing variations in received signal strength indicator (RSSI) measurements that may be received by a wireless device over a network, such as a WiFi network including one or more access points. A signal sent from an access point may be received by a user device, where channel estimation results associated with the received signal may be analyzed to determine a more accurate location of the user device. The received signal may be converted to at least one of the time domain and the frequency domain, in which signal components associated with the received signal may be identified based on a determination that the signal components may be associated with multipath fading or other types of interference. Such identified signal components, whether in the frequency domain or the time domain) may be excluded from a determination of a signal strength measurement that may in turn be used to identify the location of the user device.
