The received signal strengths include multiple first received signal strengths. A reference positioning position is obtained according to positioning reference information provided by the user device.

In response to the distance between the reference positioning position and the first positioning position being greater than a tolerance value, at least one of the first received signal strengths is excluded from the multiple received signal strengths, so as to obtain multiple filtered received signal strengths. A user position of the user device is obtained according to the filtered received signal strengths.

A split architecture is disclosed for determining the location of a wireless device in a heterogeneous wireless communications environment. A detector within the device or another component of the environment receives signals including parameters for a localization signal of the device. The parameters describe known in advance signals within the signals. Additional metadata including each frame start of the signals and assistance data and auxiliary information are also received. The known in advance signals are detected based on the parameters of the localization signal. Samples extracted from the known in advance signals are then processed and compressed and sent with other collect data to a locate server remote from the detector. The location server uses that information as well as similar information about the environment to calculate the location of the device, as well as perform tracking and navigation of the device, and report such results to the environment.

A method of locating a coal-rock main fracture by an electromagnetic radiation from a precursor of a coal-rock dynamic disaster is provided. At least four groups of three-component electromagnetic sensors are arranged in the underground tunnels, and each group of sensors includes three directive antennas for receiving electromagnetic signals orthogonal to each other. The electromagnetic signals are collected by a monitoring host. The signals are ensured to be received by different sensors synchronously via an atomic clock. The direction of the magnetic field line is determined by performing a vector superposition on strengths of the three-component electromagnetic signals of each group of sensors. The planes of electromagnetic wave propagation perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field line are determined accordingly. The location of the coal-rock fracture is determined by the intersection point of the planes of electromagnetic wave propagation determined by the multiple groups of sensors.
