Abstract:
A location server collects from access points at known locations in a venue, which is represented by grid locations defined by parameters accessible to the location server, (i) ultra wideband (UWB) location measurements for a UWB location technology based on UWB transmissions from mobile devices in the venue, and (ii) non-UWB location measurements for non-UWB location technologies based on non-UWB transmissions from the mobile devices. The location server associates the non-UWB location measurements for the non-UWB location technologies with the grid locations, using the UWB location measurements as reference measurements. The location server populates location calibration records for the grid locations of the venue with the non-UWB location measurements associated with the grid locations. The location server calibrates the non-UWB location technologies at the grid locations based on the non-UWB location measurements in the location calibration records associated with the grid locations.
