Abstract

See full text

An exemplary location detector includes a receiver that is configured to receive a low power signal from a locating beacon and to receive a transmission from at least one other location detector. The location detector includes a processor that is configured to determine an identifier of the locating beacon from which the low power signal was received. The processor is also configured to determine any difference between a first signal strength of the at least one low power signal received by the receiver and a second signal strength of a low power signal received by at least one other location detector from the same locating beacon. The location detector also includes a transmitter configured to report the first signal strength and the determined identifier of the locating beacon responsive to the processor determining that the first signal strength is at least equal to the second signal strength.
