Abstract:
A method of tracking a service queue using a single-point signal monitor in which at least one customer carries a wireless device may include: receiving a received signal strength from the wireless device as a trace; identify first segments of the trace containing mostly positive sloped received signal strength; identify second segments of the trace containing mostly negative sloped received signal; extract attributes from the first and second segments as child variables for two parent nodes in a Bayesian Network in which the two parent nodes respectively model a beginning of service and a leaving period for a service queue; and inputting the extracted attributes into Bayesian Network; and determining a beginning of service and leaving period using the Bayesian Network. The method may also include determining critical time points in a trace using a K-L divergence technique.

Claim (Index 2):
The device of  claim 1 , further comprising a second antenna configured to receive wireless signals from the plurality of mobile wireless devices, wherein:\n the receiving circuit is coupled to the second antenna and further configured to measure a signal strength amplitude of the received wireless signals from the second antenna; and the programming instructions for receiving a trace comprises additional programming instructions configured to maximize or average a first trace and a second trace, each comprising a plurality of received wireless signal strength amplitudes from a selected one of the plurality of mobile wireless devices in a temporal order from the time the selected mobile wireless device enters a receivable range of the first or the second antenna to the time the selected mobile wireless device exits the receivable range of the first or second antenna, respectively.
