Abstract
A method includes receiving, at a first communication device, signals from communication devices. Each signal of the signals includes information associated with a particular communication device of the communication devices. The information includes location coordinates of a corresponding communication device of the communication devices. The method includes determining, at the first communication device, a characteristic associated with each signal of the signals. The method also includes determining, at the first communication device, estimated location coordinates of the first communication device based on the location coordinates and based on characteristics associated with the signals.
