SITE LOCATION DETERMINATION USING CROWD SOURCED PROPAGATION DELAY AND LOCATION DATA
First Claim
1. A system, comprising:
- at least one memory storing computer-executable instructions; and
at least one processor, communicatively coupled to the at least one memory, which facilitates execution of the computer-executable instructions to at least;
receive propagation delay measurements based on communication signals exchanged by a mobile device and an access point;
receive a location of the mobile device; and
determine an estimated location of the access point based at least in part on the propagation delay measurements and the location of the mobile device.

Abstract
Site location determination using crowd sourced propagation delay and location data is provided. A propagation delay component receives a set of propagation delay measurements for communications between a mobile device and an access point. A user equipment location component receives a location of the mobile device, and a combination component combines the set of propagation delay measurements and the location into a set of location data. An access point location component determines a set of intersecting locations between the set of location data and additional sets of location data, and determines a location of the access point based on the set of intersecting locations.

11. A method, comprising:
-
receiving, by a system including a processor, propagation delay measurements based on communication signals exchanged by a mobile device and an access point; receiving, by the system, a location of the mobile device; generating, by the system, a first set of location data based at least in part on the propagation delay measurements and the location of the mobile device; comparing, by the system, the first set of location data and additional sets of location data corresponding to a set of disparate mobile devices; and determining, by the system, based on the comparison, an estimated location of the access point. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A computer readable storage medium comprising computer executable instructions that, in response to execution, cause a computing system including at least one processor to perform operations, comprising:
-
receiving a location of a first mobile device and a first set of propagation delay measurements for communication signals exchanged by the first mobile device and an access point; generating a first set of location data using the first set of propagation delay measurements and the location of the first mobile device; receiving a location of a second mobile device and a second set of propagation delay measurements for communication signals exchanged by the second mobile device and the access point; generating a second set of location data using the second set of propagation delay measurements and the location of the second mobile device; determining a set of intersecting locations between the first set of location data and the second set of location data; and identifying an estimated location of the access point based at least in part on the set of intersecting locations. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
