Abstract:

A radiofrequency (RF) localization system can include an RF sensing component, a signal-processing module and a visualization element. A plurality of antennas mounted on a belt, or on a helmet, or at least one extendable antenna attached within a backpack could be used for the RF sensing component. The signal-processing module can receive an RF Signal-of-Interest (SOI), and can further compute localization information for the RF SOI such as line of bearing, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and SSID information. The visualization element can be an augmented reality (AR) visor mounted on the helmet, or AR glasses. The signal-processing module can be mounted to the helmet, visor, or glasses, as applicable. The RF sensing component, signal module and said visualization element can be worn by the user, and can cooperate to provide hands free RF localization information in an AR format to an end user.
