    Abstract: This document describes techniques and systems for indoor localization using Bluetooth high-accuracy distance measurement (HADM). In examples, the described systems and techniques perform a signal-strength scan to identify multiple anchor points and then pair, based on the signal-strength scan, the tagged device with a first anchor point of the identified anchor points. A HADM time slot is set for the first anchor point and at least two additional anchor points of the identified anchor points. A HADM event is initiated, the HADM event including sending a HADM ping and receiving HADM responses from two or more of the identified anchor points. Based on at least a time of receipt of HADM responses received from the two or more of the identified anchor points, the location of the tagged device is calculated.

    Abstract: In general, the subject matter described in this disclosure can be embodied in methods, devices, and program products for selecting a wireless transmission mechanism. A computing device receives a request to begin a full-duplex voice communication session with a remote computing system. The computing device identifies that it has wirelessly connected to both a WWAN access point and a WLAN access point. The computing device determines whether a level of non-voice session data that is queued for transmission or receipt by the computing device falls beneath a threshold level of data, and as a result, switches to using a single one of multiple WLAN radio chains. The computing device communicates data over the single one of the multiple WLAN radio chains, including voice session data from the full-duplex voice communication session.
