Techniques for accurate position location and tracking suitable for a wide
range of facilities in variable environments are disclosed. In one
aspect, a system for position location comprises a plurality of sensors
(e.g. a network monitor, an environment sensor) for generating a
measurements of a plurality of sources, a plurality of objects or tags,
each object generating measurements of the plurality of sources, and a
processor for receiving the measurements and generating a position
location for one or more objects in accordance with the received
measurements. In another aspect, a position engine comprises a mapped
space of a physical environment, and a processor for updating the mapped
space in response to received measurements. The position engine may
receive second measurements from an object within the physical
environment, and generate a position location estimate for the object
from the received second measurements and the mapped space. Various other
aspects are also presented.
