Abstract
The present invention relates to a system and a method for refined zoning via intersection. Specifically, anchor nodes () of a zone-based positioning system are divided into multiple hyper zones () in different ways, where the different ways of dividing the hyper zones may be orthogonal to each other, with possibly partial overlapping. For each way of dividing the hyper zones (), the most likely candidate hyper zone is selected based on a user zoning method. Thereafter, the intersection () of the identified hyper zones is taken as the final location result of a mobile node to be located.
