Deployment and Design Requirements
Figure 6 | Improved Location Accuracy by Increasing Density |
3.In long and narrow coverage areas, refrain from placing access points in a straight line. Instead, attempt to stagger them such that each access point is more likely to provide a more unique snapshot of device location (see Figure 7).
Figure 7 | Refrain From Straight Line Placement |
Though the design in Figure 7 may provide enough access point density for high bandwidth applications, location suffers because each access point’s view of a single device isn’t varied enough; thus, location is difficult to determine.
4.Move the access points to the perimeter of the coverage area and stagger them. Each has a higher likelihood of offering a distinctly different view of the device, resulting in higher location fidelity (see Figure 8).
