    Abstract: Described herein are devices, systems, methods, and processes for managing the computational complexity in geolocating a large number of network devices (e.g., access points (APs)) in indoor environments. A number of network devices may be partitioned into smaller groups or batches based on neighbor knowledge about the network devices. Each batch of network devices can include just devices located on a same floor, or may include devices located across different floors. Every batch may include at least one anchor network device. The geolocation of the network devices can be determined, batch-by-batch, based on fusing global navigation satellite system (GNSS) pseudorange measurements and inter-network device ranging measurements. The geolocation accuracy for each partition can be evaluated utilizing such metrics as the average residual error. If the error for a batch is greater than a threshold, remedial measures may be taken to reduce the error and improve the geolocation accuracy.

    Abstract: Devices, systems, methods, and processes for accurately determining a location of a device are described herein. The device may receive Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) data from two satellites in two time periods. The device can determine two pseudo range differences corresponding to the two satellites. The device may further determine two contours based on the two pseudo range differences. An overlap between the two contours may be utilized by the device to determine the location. The device can also determine the location of the device based on a contour and an estimated location. The device may utilize a Global Positioning System (GPS) database, an Access Points (AP) database, or one or more servers to retrieve the estimated location. The device can further configure an operating frequency and an output power based on the location in real-time.

    Abstract: Physical Layer Protocol Data Units (PPDUs) with an extension and specifically PPDUs with an extension for Ambient Power (AMP) Backscatter Device (BKD) excitation may be provided. A PPDU with an AMP BKD excitation extension can include an AMP BKD excitation extension field indicating the version and duration of the AMP BKD excitation extension. A method for providing the PPDU with the AMP BKD excitation extension includes generating the PPDU with the AMP BKD excitation extension and the AMP BKD excitation extension field and transmitting the PPDU with the AMP BKD excitation extension.

    Abstract: Coordinated customization of harvesting conditions to ambient power devices may be provided. receive Radio Frequency (RF) characteristics associated with a backscatter communication device may be received. Based on the RF characteristics and a Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) from the backscatter communication device, it may be determined that the computing device has an ability to charge the backscatter communication device to at least meet a predetermined energy need of the backscatter communication device. Next, in response to determining that the computing device has the ability to charge the backscatter communication device, charging of the backscatter communication device to at least meet the predetermined energy need of the backscatter communication device may be scheduled.

    Abstract: Real-time radio self-calibration may be provided. The self-calibration may begin by sampling a Transmission (TX) signal. An achievable Error Vector Magnitude (EVM) for one or more frames may be determined based on the TX signal. Link budgets for clients may be determined using a TX power and a supported Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS). A per packet TX power is adjusted based on the achievable EVM and a TX retry rate. The PA linearity of the radio may also be adjusted based on the achievable EVM and the link budget. The client may be regrouped into a new MCS based on the link budget.

    Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for using an anchored endpoint to enhance MFA authentication of a client device. A method performed at least in part by a security service includes authenticating of a client device connecting to a secure resource. The method also includes determining a first Wi-Fi fingerprint of the client device, determining that the client device is within a threshold proximity to an anchor device, and determining a second Wi-Fi fingerprint of the anchor device. The method also includes detecting a change to the first Wi-Fi fingerprint of the client device and determining that the second Wi-Fi fingerprint of the anchor device has not changed. The method also includes determining whether the client device is within the threshold proximity of the anchor device, if it is, access to the secured resource continues to be allowed, if it is not, a reauthentication of the client device is triggered.

    Abstract: Connection issue prediction may be provided. A computing device may receive first Channel State Information (CSI) for a first link associated with a client device. The first CSI may be collected when beamforming was trained on a second link associated with the client device. Second CSI may be received for the first link associated with the client device. The second CSI may be collected at a time subsequent to when beamforming was trained on the second link associated with the client device. A correlation between the first CSI and the second CSI may be determined to be below a predetermined threshold. A status of the beamforming performed on the second link associated with the client device may be set to stale in response to determining that the correlation between the first CSI and the second CSI is below the predetermined threshold.
