Patent
Secure broadcast area identification
F. Perry Ii Jack,Steven C. Maher +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, location information is provided to a management server that can then validate the location information and determine the appropriate broadcast area for the electronic device based at least in part on the location.
Patent
Method and apparatus for management of location information
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an interaction region associated with a user, where the interaction region is determined according to a current location, an activity, a predicted future location, and the predicted future activity of the second user.
Patent
Methods and systems for sharing position data and tracing paths between mobile-device users
TL;DR: In this paper, a system for exchanging GPS or other position data between devices for purposes of group activities, child location monitoring, work group coordination, dispatching of employees etc is described.
Patent
Dynamic configuration of mobile station location services
TL;DR: In this article, a mobile station application will determine the current carrier network and submit a query to an application server that will return the correct location server configuration for the specified network, which is used on the mobile station to dynamically configure the device through the available GPS chipset API.

Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) Routing
TL;DR: A logging instrument contains a pulsed neutron source and a pair of radiation detectors spaced along the length of the instrument to provide an indication of formation porosity which is substantially independent of the formation salinity.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
RADAR: an in-building RF-based user location and tracking system
TL;DR: RADAR is presented, a radio-frequency (RF)-based system for locating and tracking users inside buildings that combines empirical measurements with signal propagation modeling to determine user location and thereby enable location-aware services and applications.
Optimized Link State Routing Protocol (OLSR)
Thomas Clausen,Philippe Jacquet +1 more
TL;DR: The Optimized Link State Routing protocol is an optimization of the classical link state algorithm tailored to the requirements of a mobile wireless LAN and provides optimal routes (in terms of number of hops).
Journal ArticleDOI
The active badge location system
TL;DR: A novel system for the location of people in an office environment is described, where members of staff wear badges that transmit signals providing information about their location to a centralized location service, through a network of sensors.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
The Cricket location-support system
TL;DR: The randomized algorithm used by beacons to transmit information, the use of concurrent radio and ultrasonic signals to infer distance, the listener inference algorithms to overcome multipath and interference, and practical beacon configuration and positioning techniques that improve accuracy are described.
