Patent ID: 8620304

Claim:
Using (a) at least one computing device including a processor, and (b) at least one RF receiver for receiving and measuring RF signals, a method of deducing which telecommunications equipment site is likely to have transmitted the received and measured RF signals, comprising: (a) using said at least one RF receiver, measuring RF signals to provide a set S of ground-truthed RF signals for each of a plurality of locations L(i); (b) using said computing device processor to compute RF propagation from a plurality of identified telecommunications equipment sites T(x) based on a predictive model for the plurality of locations L(i), the computed predictive model comprising a set of predicted RF propagation values P(T(x), L(i)); and (c) correlating the set S of ground-truthed RF signals for location L(i) with the set of predicted RF propagation values P(T(x), L(i)) to deduce which of the plurality of identified telecommunications equipment sites T(x) is likely to have transmitted the measured RF signals.
