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).
