Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for determining the floors on which APs are located for WiFi-based indoor positioning systems. A data collection phase is followed by a data analysis phase. During data collection, measurement data to observed APs may be collected from various locations on different floors. The measurements data may include received signal strength indication (RSSI), optional round-trip-time (RTT) data to the APs, and floor information of the measurement locations. Measurement data may also be collected from crowd sourced data without floor information of the measurement locations. In data analysis, the collected measurement data are analyzed using various algorithms to determine if APs belong to the same floor and to assign APs on the same floor to the same cluster. APs on different floors may thus be assigned to different clusters. If the floor information of the measurement locations is known, each cluster may be assigned a floor number.

Abstract: Various methods, apparatuses and articles of manufacture are provided for use by one or more electronic devices to detect and/or respond to certain changes (anomalies) within a wireless signaling environment. For example, a first electronic device may receive a report of a threshold anomaly detected by a monitoring device deployed at a fixed predetermined position within a coverage area of a network service device, and may initiate an investigation by requesting that a second electronic device attempt to monitor certain transmissions of and/or actively communicate with a network service device. In response to a determination based, at least in part, on the investigation that the threshold anomaly represents a threshold change in status within the wireless signaling environment, the first electronic device may transmit a status report regarding the wireless signaling environment to another electronic device.

Abstract: Approaches for enhancing range-based position determination using pairwise error detection and compensation are provided. One method for enhancing a position estimate of a first node may include performing measurements at the first node using a signal received from a second node, and receiving measurements from the second node. The received measurements may be performed at the second node using a signal provided by the first node. The method may further include determining pairwise comparisons of the performed measurements and the received measurements, and compensating the measurements performed at the first node, based on the pairwise comparisons, for estimating the position of the first node.
