Systems and methods for angle of arrival determination in wireless devices include one or more processors which determine a first angle of arrival (AoA) and a first distance between a user device and an anchor device at a first time instance, according to first measurements between a single ultra-wideband (UWB) antenna of the user device and a plurality of UWB antennas of the anchor device. The processor(s) may determine a second AoA and a second distance between the user device and the anchor device at a second time instance, according to second measurements between the single UWB antenna of the user device and the plurality of UWB antennas of the anchor device. The processor(s) may determine a direction of movement of the user device relative to the anchor device, according to the first AoA, the first distance, the second AoA, and the second distance.

Embodiments include methods, systems, and apparatuses for automatic broadband information correlation and record generation. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving performance information related to a broadband connection of customer premises equipment (CPE), and receiving information related to a local network connected to the CPE. The method includes processing the local network information to generate location information associated with the CPE. The method further includes generating a record including the performance information and the location information associated with the CPE.

Automatic broadband information correlation and record generation

Systems and methods for controlling a wireless network receive data from wireless access points within a wireless network and use the data in a model of the wireless network to identify allowable transitions between states defined by the model. Parameters for the wireless access points are adjusted to initiate transitions between the states and, based on the transitions, the model is updated.

Time division duplex transmission over copper physical channels is managed. In one example, upstream time slots for upstream transmission in a first physical channel are scheduled. Downstream time slots for downstream transmission in a second physical channel are scheduled. Transmission in the upstream time slots is substantially not simultaneous with transmission in the downstream time slots.
