Techniques for radio fingerprinting
First Claim
1. At least one non-transitory machine-readable medium comprising a set of instructions that in response to being executed on a computing device cause the computing device to:
- passively receive a set of radio frequency signals from multiple mobile computing devices at a first time;
store identification information for the set of radio frequency signals;
receive a subset of the set of radio frequency signals from one of the multiple mobile computing devices at a second time;
associate the stored identification information for the subset of radio frequency signals to the one mobile computing device; and
generate a multi-point radio fingerprint for the one mobile computing device based on the subset of radio frequency signals, the subset of radio frequency signals comprising two or more different radio frequency technologies or standards.

Abstract
Examples are disclosed for radio fingerprinting. In some examples radio fingerprinting logic may be operative for execution on a processor component to receive a set of radio frequency signals from multiple mobile computing devices at a first time, store identification information for the set of radio frequency signals, receive a subset of the set of radio frequency signals from one of the multiple mobile computing devices at a second time, associate identification information for the subset of radio frequency signals to the one mobile computing device, and generate a multi-point radio fingerprint for the one mobile computing device based on the subset of radio frequency signals. Other examples are described and claimed.
