Rotating identifications in light-based positioning systems
First Claim
1. A light-based communication system, comprising:
- a plurality of luminaires, wherein each of the plurality of luminaires is configured to transmit light-based communication (LCom) signals; and
a server communicatively coupled to the plurality of luminaires and configured to;
assign an identifier to each of the plurality of luminaires;
transmit the assigned identifier to each of the plurality of luminaires, wherein each of the plurality of luminaires transmits the assigned identifier via LCom signals;
rotate, in response to receiving a trigger signal, the assigned identifier for each of the plurality of luminaires; and
transmit the rotated identifier to each of the plurality of luminaires, wherein each of the plurality of luminaires transmits the rotated identifier via LCom signals.

Abstract
Various embodiments disclosed herein include a light-based communication system. The system includes a plurality of luminaires, in which each of the plurality of luminaires is configured to transmit light-based communication (LCom) signals, and a server communicatively coupled to the plurality of luminaires. The server is configured to assign an identifier to each of the plurality of luminaires, transmit the assigned identifier to each of the plurality of luminaires, in which each of the plurality of luminaires transmits the assigned identifier via LCom signals, rotate, in response to receiving a trigger signal, the assigned identifier for each of the plurality of luminaires, and transmit the rotated identifier to each of the plurality of luminaires, in which each of the plurality of luminaires transmits the rotated identifier via LCom signals.
