Abstract:
As at least part of a location network, there is provided a trigger node and multiple listening nodes. The trigger node wirelessly transmits a trigger signal to the mobile device, the trigger signal being configured to cause the mobile device to wirelessly emit a signal in response to receiving the trigger signal. The listening nodes listen for the response signal that was transmitted from the mobile device in response to the trigger signal, and thereby at each respective one of a plurality of the listening nodes that wirelessly receive the response signal from the mobile device, a respective measurement is taken of the response signal as received at the respective listening node, for use in performing a localization to determine the location of the mobile device based on one or more of these measurements.
