Techniques for detecting and presenting rewards for presence are disclosed. Presence of a mobile device within a building is detected based on a plurality of triggers including a degradation of a first signal and a concurrent improvement of a second signal. The triggers are identified by a client-side application of the mobile device or a corresponding server-side processor with which the client-side application is in communication and from which the client-side application is configured to automatically receive available rewards. In response to detecting presence within the building, the server-side processor determines that a user of the mobile device is eligible for a reward, and the reward is provided to the user via the client-side application at the mobile device.

Geolocated information is communicated to a user based upon a position of smart device in a building as determined by optical recognition of a first visual identifier, a second visual identifier and a third visual identifier. A distance determined from each of the visual identifiers, as well as a direction of interest indicated by a user. A user interface is generated for display on a Smart Device based upon the position of the Smart Device and direction of interest.

A method for detecting communication jamming attacks includes collecting, via a processor associated with a base station, local jamming information from a first vehicle and a second vehicle. The local jamming information having an attack time, an attack localization, and an attack frequency. The method further includes building a global jamming map comprising global jamming information, based on the local jamming information, determining, based on the global jamming map, a location of a communication jamming device, and causing to transmit global jamming information to a third vehicle. The global jamming information is associated with the location of the communication jamming device.

Methods and Apparatus relating to environmental monitoring and control systems are discussed. More specifically, the present invention relates to methods and systems for monitoring temperature and other environmental conditions in a cold storage facility and tracking the locations and environmental conditions of a product throughout its cold storage life cycle using the environmental control system and smart devices in logical communication therewith. Tracked interactions with personnel in relationship to products in cold storage are also discussed.

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a method in which a processing system obtains geolocation information for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and for a cell of a terrestrial communication network. The system estimates a distance between the UAV and the cell, calculates an expected receive (RX) power for a signal transmitted from the UAV to the cell, and compares the expected RX power with a threshold power to determine whether the cell is a suitable target cell for a communications handover procedure for the UAV. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Embodiments described herein provide for system and methods to crowdsource the location of wireless devices and accessories that lack a connection to a wide area network. One embodiment provides for a data processing system configured to perform operations comprising loading a user interface on an electronic device, the user interface to enable the determination of a location of a wireless accessory that is associated with the electronic device, generating a set of public keys included within a signal broadcast by the wireless accessory, the signal broadcast during a first period, sending the set of public keys to a server with a request to return data that corresponds with a public key in the set of public keys, decrypting the location data using a private key associated with the public key, and processing the location data to determine a probable location for the wireless accessory.

The invention relates to a method and a system for position determination of at least one object, in particular inside a building. In a method for position determination of at least one object, at least four transmitters transmit circularly polarized signals and a receiver to be localized receives the circularly polarized signals. At least two and in particular all transmitters transmit periodic signals of different frequencies, these frequencies being closely adjacent.

Techniques for positioning a NR bandwidth-limited user equipment (UE) are provided. An example method of positioning performed by a bandwidth-limited UE includes transmitting a first timing measurement signal to at least one proximate premium UE, wherein the at least one proximate premium UE is capable of using more bandwidth than the bandwidth-limited UE, receiving a second timing measurement signal from the at least one proximate premium UE, and determining location information for the bandwidth-limited UE based at least on the first timing measurement signal and the second timing measurement signal.

Systems, methods, and non-transitory media are provided for localizing and mapping smart devices. An example method can include receiving, by an extended reality (XR) device, an identification output from a connected device that is coupled directly or indirectly to the XR device, the identification output including an audio pattern, a display pattern, and/or a light pattern; detecting the identification output from the connected device; and based on the identification output from the connected device, mapping the connected device in a coordinate system of the XR device.
