In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a plurality of radio frequency chains at a wireless device in a block based modulation environment, recording subcarrier phases and differences between the subcarrier phases, and using the subcarrier phase differences to construct a feature vector for use in angle of arrival calculated positioning of a mobile device.

Angle of arrival location sensing with antenna array

In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a processor for processing a plurality of radio frequency chains at a wireless device in a block based modulation environment, recording subcarrier phases and differences between the subcarrier phases, and using the subcarrier phase differences to construct a feature vector for use in angle of arrival calculated positioning of a mobile device, and memory for storing the subcarrier phases and the feature vector.

In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a plurality of antennas, a receiver in communication with said plurality of antennas for receiving one or more packets in a block based modulation environment, a switch interposed between a portion of the antennas and the receiver for switching between the antennas, and a processor for calculating angle of arrival for use in identifying a location of a mobile device transmitting the one or more packets.
