Abstract

See full text

An information processing apparatus comprises a recording module; an extraction module which extracts maximum radio wave intensity from the radio wave intensities recorded in the same time zone and extracts the radio wave intensities of other first communication devices arranged in the vicinity of a position where the first communication device with the maximum radio wave intensity is installed; and a positioning module which measures a position of the second communication device based on the plurality of the radio wave intensities extracted by the extraction module, wherein the positioning module determines that the second communication device is present at a position where the first communication device with the maximum radio wave intensity is installed on condition that the maximum radio wave intensity extracted by the extraction module is equal to or greater than a threshold value.
