Provided are architectures, systems, methods, and computer program products for real-time object locating and position determination using frequency channel diversity for transmitting and receiving position determination signals including bursts of location signals. Channelized frequency diversity of a short burst of small location signals that “hop” across multiple frequency channels is used to collectively produce a quasi-wideband position determination signal. Object tags operating with frequency channel diversity for transmitting location signals of position determination signals require low power consumption, but can still efficiently provide adequate position determination signals for reliable position determination.

An electronic equipment, a user equipment, a wireless communication method, and a storage medium. An electronic equipment configured in a wireless communication system that comprises a single base station equipment comprises a processing circuit and is configured to: estimate the distance between a network side equipment and a user equipment according to a downlink signal arrival angle measured by the user equipment and an uplink signal arrival angle measured by the network side equipment; and determine the position of the user equipment according to the distance between the network side equipment and the user equipment as well as the uplink signal arrival angle.

A method for reporting positioning measurement information, a terminal, and a network device are provided. The method includes: receiving first configuration information from a network device; and reporting a measurement result of a beam group based on the first configuration information, where the beam group is used to transmit a positioning reference signal PRS, and the beam group includes N beams determined by reference signal received power RSRP or time of arrival TOA, where N is a positive integer, the N beams are beams in a first cell, and the first cell is one of cells participating in positioning.

Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for calibrating beam orientation errors for improved positioning. For example, certain embodiments may utilize collection of various measurements to compute, and correct for, beam orientation errors. Additionally, or alternatively, certain embodiments may collect information about propagation conditions in a network and may establish virtual anchors for the network.

A system for finding up in a projectile flight relative to earth. The system having a transmitter which transmits polarized reference signals to a guidance sub-system on the projectile. The guidance sub-system includes a magnetometer and polarized and non-polarized receivers. Measurements from the magnetometer are used to determine a general up direction. The polarized and non-polarized receivers are arranged such that, during rotation of the projectile, reference signals received by the polarized receiver modulate whereas reference signals received by the non-polarized receivers are unaffected. A ratio of the strengths of the signals received by the polarized and non-polarized receivers determines alignment of a vertical axis. From the general up direction and alignment of the vertical axis, a precise up direction of the projectile in flight relative to the earth can be determined.

This application provides a signal measurement method and a communication apparatus, to measure a downlink angle of departure (DAOD) more accurately. The method includes: receiving resource configuration information, where the resource configuration information includes configuration information of a first reference signal set, the first reference signal set includes M reference signals, N reference signals in the M reference signals are reference reference signals, M is greater than 1, and N is greater than or equal to 1; receiving the M reference signals; determining N first paths corresponding to the N reference reference signals, and separately determining M*N received powers of the M reference signals on the N first paths; and reporting a measurement result, where the measurement result includes K*N received powers in M*N received powers, K≤M, and the first path is one of a plurality of paths corresponding to a reference reference signal.

A system and method for identifying a person's location at a school, hotel, office, business, restaurant or other venue and tracking the movements of that person during their visit to the venue. One or more wireless virtual beacons communicate with the person's electronic device. The virtual beacons provide the system with real-time data about the person's whereabouts, allowing for the confirmation and tracking of the person at the location. A first non-limiting example of use, include a company that provides food and beverage allowing the person to place an order for food and beverages on their electronic device and having the order delivered to the person at their current location as determined by the system. Another non-limiting example includes a company performing analytics on the time and movement of it's employees and customers.
