Patent ID: 11733391

Abstract:
Disclosed is an approach for automatic detection of entrance(s). In particular, processor(s) could have access to counter data arranged to maintain counters that each respectively represent a count of how many times GNSS service has been obtained or lost in a respective one of a plurality of sub-areas. Given this, the processor(s) could detect a GNSS state change corresponding to an instance of GNSS service being obtained or lost in a particular sub-area and could responsively increment the respective counter associated with the particular sub-area. In turn, the processor(s) could make a determination that the respective counter is representing a count that is greater than other count(s) represented by counter(s) associated with other sub-area(s). And based at least on this determination, the processor(s) could deem the particular sub-area to include an entrance, thereby resulting in detection of the entrance.
