[0012] System Overview

[0013] figure 1 Illustrated is a positioning environment 100 within which various embodiments disclosed herein may be implemented. Environment 100 includes a wide area network of synchronous transmitters 110 (also may be denoted herein as "beacons"), described as being terrestrial, and any number of receivers 120 configured to acquire and track signals provided from transmitters 110, satellite network 150, or other network nodes 160 (eg, cellular networks, Wi-Fi, Ethernet, other communication networks).

[0014] Environment 100 may also include backend systems 130 that communicate with many other systems, such as transmitters 110, receivers 120, and other networks (eg, network nodes 160). Backend system 130 may include one or more processors, data sources, interfaces, and other components (not shown).

[0015] Components of backend system 130 and other systems (e.g., transmitter 110 and receiver 120) may be geographically distributed from each other...

Abstract

Described are systems and methods for acquiring three-dimensional location information. Also described are systems and methods for using the acquired three-dimension location information to locate users and enhance their experience in relation to location-based services.

Description

technical field [0001] Various embodiments relate to wireless communications, and more particularly, to networks, devices, methods, and methods for acquiring three-dimensional location information and using the acquired three-dimensional location information to locate a user and enhance the user's experience with location-based services. computer readable media. Background technique [0002] It is desirable to estimate with reasonable accuracy a person's location (or "location") in a geographic area, and to correlate that location with nearby places, things, and services. However, many techniques for estimating a user's location are often expensive, slow, or inaccurate. These disadvantages are evident in urban environments where estimating a person's location information is difficult because many challenges must be overcome to achieve a cost-effective and reliable location estimate. Even with cheaper and more reliable technologies, in urban environments, the lack of inform...
