Abstract
Systems and methods for determining an indication of locationing accuracy are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, an antenna deployment including multiple antennas and corresponding locations for the antennas is obtained. Then, one or more radio characteristics are determined for ubiety locations based on the antenna deployment and an indication of locationing accuracy for the ubiety locations is determined based on the one or more radio characteristics. In this way, an antenna deployment can be evaluated for locationing accuracy. This may be used by a network engineer or an automated system to determine and/or refine an antenna deployment.
Claims21
A method implemented in a computation node for determining an indication of locationing accuracy, comprising:
- obtaining an antenna deployment comprising a plurality of antennas and corresponding locations for the plurality of antennas;
- determining one or more radio characteristics for a plurality of ubiety locations based on the antenna deployment;
- and
- determining the indication of locationing accuracy for the plurality of ubiety locations based on the one or more radio characteristics.

A computation node comprising:
- circuitry comprising one or more processors and a memory containing instructions whereby the computation node is configured to:
- obtain an antenna deployment comprising a plurality of antennas and corresponding locations for the plurality of antennas;
- determine one or more radio characteristics for a plurality of ubiety locations based on the antenna deployment;
- and
- determine an indication of locationing accuracy for the plurality of ubiety locations based on the one or more radio characteristics.

(canceled)
A computer program comprising instructions which, when executed on at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
- obtain an antenna deployment comprising a plurality of antennas and corresponding locations for the plurality of antennas;
- determine one or more radio characteristics for a plurality of ubiety locations based on the antenna deployment;
- and
- determine an indication of locationing accuracy for the plurality of ubiety locations based on the one or more radio characteristics.
