Multicomputer data transferring system with a base station

A method for transferring data within a data transferring system, the method performed by a base station computer, comprising a rotatable reflector, a circular polarization antenna, a magnet, a hall sensor, and a transceiver, the method comprising:

• generating and continuously unicasting an updated alignment packet to one or more tag computers to facilitate a battery conservation in the one or more tag computers;
• wherein the updated alignment packet comprises a relative heading of the rotatable reflector when the rotatable reflector is at a peak alignment and a peak signal for a particular tag computer, and a rotation speed of the rotatable reflector measured in revolutions-per-second (RPS);
• as the rotatable reflector continuously rotates around the circular polarization antenna, which remains static when the rotatable reflector rotates:
• the circular polarization antenna periodically transmitting a plurality of base wireless communications received from the transceiver;
• receiving a plurality of tag transmission wireless communications from a plurality of antennas positioned in any possible orientation;
• wherein the plurality of tag transmission wireless communications comprises one or more tag transmission wireless communications from a particular antenna, of the plurality of antennas positioned in any possible orientation;
• wherein the particular antenna is part of a particular tag computer, from the one or more tag computers;
• in response to receiving the one or more tag transmission wireless communications from the particular tag computer:
• for each tag transmission wireless communication, of the one or more tag transmission wireless communications,
• computing a signal strength value for the tag transmission wireless communication;
• based on, at least in part, the signal strength value, determining a tag heading of the particular tag computer;
• wherein the tag heading indicates a relative location of the particular tag computer with respect to the base station computer;
• and
• wherein the tag heading is determined as a product of:
• a time-since-hall value, which corresponds to a time period elapsing since the last time the hall sensor was triggered by the magnet;
• a revolution-per-second value, which corresponds to an inverse of a difference between the last time the hall sensor was triggered by the magnet and a previous hall trigger time;
• and
• a constant value.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, storing one or more instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform:

• generating and continuously unicasting an updated alignment packet to one or more tag computers to facilitate a battery conservation in the one or more tag computers;
• wherein the updated alignment packet comprises a relative heading of a rotatable reflector when the rotatable reflector is at a peak alignment and a peak signal for a particular tag computer, and a rotation speed of the rotatable reflector measured in revolutions-per-second (RPS);
• as a rotatable reflector continuously rotates around a circular polarization antenna which remains static when the rotatable reflector rotates:
• the circular polarization antenna periodically transmitting a plurality of base wireless communications received from a transceiver;

• and
• a constant value.
