Abstract:
An autonomous system with no Customer Network Investment is described, wherein the system is configurable to operate on in a band in addition to the LTE band. Such system allows the definition of hybrid operations to accommodate the positioning reference signals (PRS) of LTE and already existing reference signals. The system can operate with PRS, with other reference signals such as cell-specific reference signals (CRS), or with both signal types. As such, the system provides the advantage of allowing network operator(s) to dynamically choose between modes of operation depending on circumstances, such as network throughput and compatibility.

Claim (Index 3):
The method of  claim 1 , further comprising, at the locate server:\n based on signal parameters within each signal sample among the plurality of signal samples collected during a time interval, identifying second reference signals or known signals within the multiple RF signals from each receive channel among a plurality of receive channels at the node, wherein the plurality of receive channels correspond to a plurality of antennas at the node; based on each second reference signal or known signals from each receive channel, determining an angle of arrival of each second reference signal or known signals from each in range wireless network device to at least two antennas among the plurality of antennas; based on each second reference signal or known signals from each receive channel, determining a time of arrival (TOA) or time-of-flight (TOF) of each second reference signal from each in range wireless network device to each antenna; and utilizing a plurality of determined TOAs or TOFs to determine an angle of arrival (AOA) and a time difference of arrival (TDOA) of each second reference signal or known signals from each in range wireless network device to each antenna; and utilizing one or more of the determined AOA and one or more of the determined TDOA to calculate a position of each in range wireless network device.
