Patented RSSI Modeling Approach for Indoor Positioning


1. Active measurements of all 
   RSSI data from each access 
   point is taken via Wi‐Fi Site 
   Survey. RF characteristics 
   such as multi‐path 
   reflections are recorded and 
   do not harm signal 
   measurement or location 
   accuracy.
2. Site survey data is stored in 
   the location server
3. Based on the site survey 
   data and the information 
   received from the tag/client, 
   the server software 
   calculates the real‐time 
   location using the patented 
   probabilistic algorithms.

  Ekahau RTLS works with any Wi-Fi vendor’s network, as any standard Wi-Fi application. Vendor
agnostic means you do not have to question the compatibility of your Wi-Fi network; all you need is to
                        make sure the network is stanadard IEEE 802.11.
EKAHAU: OPEN‐EASY‐ACCURATE




                                           EASY



  Ekahau RTLS can be deployed over existing Wi-Fi network faster than any other asset tracking
 solution on the market. The unique site survey process secures a rapid installation and reports the
                 expected location accuracy on each location– prior to deployment.

                                      ACCURATE



  On top of your enterprise-grade Wi-Fi network, Ekahau RTLS does NOT require additional
 hardware infrastructure, chokepoints, or additional Wi-Fi APs, and is still capable of delivering
                   excellent accuracy to enable mission critical applications.
