Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices are described that provide for wireless searching in a location tracking environment. The methods, systems, and/or devices may include tools and techniques that provide for analyzing requests for location data of an entity and preparing a response set based on the request and the available tags. Response sets may include location data for the requested entity, location data for a second entity different from the requested entity, a clarifying question, or a null value. Multiple requests may be received and an order of evaluation will be determined. Results may be adjusted for individual users. Categories as well as individual entities may be searched. Upon receiving a response set, a mobile device may display directions to the identified entity.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for automatically changing the manner in which a tag unit communicates with one or more access points based on the tag unit's mobility state are described. A tag unit may transmit ultra-wideband (UWB) signals in a low update mode while in a stationary state. The tag unit may transmit UWB signals in a high update mode while in a mobile state. The tag unit, an access point, and/or a tracking management server may determine a tag unit's mobility state and adjust an update mode based on the mobility state.
